Every digital camera has a way to do what's called, "white balance", you see it as icons of the sun, cloud and light bulb, some cameras even have the underwater color correction in-camera, but since not every situation is the same, they use a color card with some neutral gray to help the person editing the image.

Just the first result on amazon. Good camera phone would probably work, software I've got is for NEF files (written by some computational imaging grad students I knew back in undergrad) but should be able to do with a camera phone, especially if you can get higher-bit depth RAWs.

It's a personal preference, though none of your other questions can be properly answered without knowing what software you will use. While they may provide similar results, how you get there changes with the software choice you make.
I can suggest getting a white balance card and/or a color reference card (this is a cheap one) to help ensure more accurate color when doing landscapes. And calibrating your monitor.
