Step 1: Before we begin, make sure Zune software is not running. Extract the “updating tool” you downloaded and run update.bat as an administrator (right click, run as admin).

Step 2: Once finished with fooling stuff, Zune would launch from which you will have to check for updates.

Step 3: Zune might show you Build 7401 download & install, Check for updates again and you will see Windows Phone 7 Build 7661, download and install this too. Once done, your Zune will not recognize your phone, you will need to download and install a beta version of Zune from here.

Step 4: Check for updates the 3rd time and you will get the Windows Phone 7 Build 7712 ( oh yeah that’s how it works)– again, download and install.

That’s all, you now have the latest Mango build running on your phone.
