Many of my friends were asking for tutorial to get back to stock Rom ,so Here’s the procedure on how to manually install the stock ROM (firmware) on Samsung Galaxy Y Duos GT-S6102 for all of them.
Flashing stock ROMs is useful in downgrading or upgrading to any available firmware versions you desired. This has been also useful for unbricking purposes for a bricked, reverting back to original stock or if you needed your device warranty back.
This guide is a bit risky for beginners and can only be used by advance users who already had an experience on how to tweak android devices firmware.
Now, this procedure is no joke and should be taken seriously for it might results to damage your phone if some mistakes might happen. i’m talking about firmware flashing here, one false move or any interruption will take your device into serious situation that is not too easy to recover.Your phone is not a toy for us, but it is your personal property, you are the only one who can decide on what to do about it.

How to Flash with Multiples files with Pit, Bootloader, PDA, PHONE/MODEM and CSC file

Click on each button and load the appropiate file unto it.
Pit Button – select and load the torino_1205.pit
u need only 3 file
PDA,Modem,CSC
PDA button – look for the file with the letters PDA or CODE on it,
like PDA_S6102XXXXX.tar.md5 (also .tar support)
PHONE button- look with the word MODEM file,
like MODEM_S6102XXXXX.tar.md5 (also .tar support)

There are three checkboxes on the left side of ODIN, the Re-Partition, Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time.
The Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time are often always checked in flashing while the Re-Partition will only be checked if you want to fix the memory partition of the phone, now if you’ll only want to upgrade or downgrade DO NOT CHECK THE REPARTITION.
DO NOT CHECK RE-PARTITION – Safety for Upgrade and Downgrade
Full Flashing with RE-PARTITION enabled – Advisable only for fixing Soft bricked devices
