I'm fairly sure they could if they REALLY wanted to, but I doubt they'll do it in most cases. However if the law is somewhat similar to the law in Denmark, then rooting / jailbreaking your phone would only void the warranty. If the phone broke because of it being rooted. So if you installed an app that caused the screen to flicker, then you'd have voided the warranty in theory.

 

Don't know the laws in Iceland though. My suggestion would be to call the retailer / call whatever service that's offered in Iceland about buyer’s law to get the correct answer. After all those are the ones you'll have to deal with incase something happens.. :)

if you un-root your phone properly, they will have no way of knowing it was ever rooted.
