Root Need Advice

So I followed the root guide and was met with success, I think.. I did see the green box at the top left corner of odin. Plus I can grant superuser access. I think I'm rooted but can't be sure.

So I've been trying to schedule a diagnostic session at Samsung because the pixels aren't quite right. I would take it to the nearest retailer with warranty authorization but since I technically didn't buy the device from them they said it had to go through Samsung. Samsung agreed to impose that standard warranty. But before I can do any of this I have to see if my phone is actually rooted and what needs to be done to to make sure they don't send me back broken phone with a note saying "You shouldn't have rooted"

Please help :(

Download this app from the Gplay store:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup
if you are root it will let you use it- if not it will tell you also.
If you are rooted let me know and we can see how what is available to unroot it:)
 
Thank you for all your help, but I'm afraid that I'm too new with Odin the complete the prcess. Could you go inno a little more detail?

At the beginning of the link I shared it takes you to another thread where there is more direction. The stock file will have to be downloaded first from the link. Give me a few-will find some additional Odin info for you.
It is a pretty simple program to use :)
