last time i checked sweden was in EU but i can see if i can get my phone which has warranty to see if they will fix it,
its rooted but the root isn't caused by rooting it (Manufucator fault) has been since we got it, but i've never heard anyone getting their phone fixed if they have root. idk i can try.
Most people don't have a clue what their rights are with stuff like this, thus the companies get away with it. Make sure you know your rights, be able to quote the law references, you will win.
