Description
In Appium there is method to get the device time (getDeviceTime()) but there is no method to get the device timezone using Appium.
I have noticed the following method is here
commandRepository.put(GET_DEVICE_TIME, getC("/session/:sessionId/appium/device/system_time"));
But there is no default method to get the values from the device using the driver..
We do need to support for the following methods
- To get device timezone
- To get Bluetooth status
- To enable Bluetooth
- To disable Bluetooth
- To get device language
- To get device region
- To get device preferred language
- To get location status
We are tried using ProcessBuilder to execute the adb command but we need a common method for iOS and Android because adb supports only Android.
Kindly add these methods or assist me on how to do these for both iOS and Android

Research direction
Start with src/main/java/io/appium/java_client/MobileCommand.java and the existing GET_DEVICE_TIME command mapping. Review how driver methods expose that command, then determine how the requested timezone, Bluetooth, language, region, preferred-language, and location-status operations could be represented for both iOS and Android. Done means the requested operations are available through the common driver API.
