Samsung Galaxy Y Duos is a decent quality smartphone from Samsung, which comes with a 3.14-inch touch display powered by an 832 MHz processor along with 290 MB RAM and it runs on Android V2.3 (Gingerbread) operating system. If you are using this smartphone and looking for a way to gain root privileges in it, then you are on the right page as I have given a tutorial to root Samsung Galaxy Y Duos without PC here.
By following the tutorial given here, you can be able to root Samsung Galaxy Y Duos smartphone and get the ability to install custom ROM firmware’s (which are using latest Android versions), custom-built Android applications, custom recovery (CWM or TWRP recovery), etc.
WARNING: Rooting your Samsung smartphone will null its warranty, and you won’t be able to claim it until you unroot your device. So, think well about it before getting started with the rooting tutorial given here.
Prerequisites:
Step 1: Make sure that your device has at least 50-60% battery backup in it before proceeding further with the rooting tutorial.
Step 2: Although the rooting procedure given here is not a data-loss process, it won’t hurt to take a backup of personal data in your smartphone. So, take a complete backup using an appropriate app before proceeding with the rooting procedure.
Step 3: Next, enable “Unknown Sources” in your Samsung device by following this path: Settings -> Device Administration -> Unknown Sources. Only by doing so, you will be able to install the “KingRoot” non-market app for rooting your device.
Once you have finished all these prerequisites, you can move forward to the rooting tutorial given below.
Tutorial To Root Samsung Galaxy Y Duos Without PC:
Step 1: To get started, download KingRoot apk and install it in your smartphone.

Step 3: Once you click the blue button, Kingroot will start rooting your device. While doing so, you will get the “Rooting. Plz, don’t worry if your device reboots!” message with a progress bar.

For confirmation, open up your Apps Menu and look for the Kinguser app. If you can find it there, your device is successfully rooted.
