goto the following forum : forum.xda-developers.com/

search and see if specific threads exist for your mobile . if not look around in the forum for posts explaining how to upgrade 2.1 to 2.3.

yes , it is indeed possible . but be ready to tinker with ur phone a bit . it involves rooting ur phone (gaining access to root directory of ur phone) , flashing its os and installing custom roms .

step by step instructions are given and tools,roms are also given by developers in the forum . do it carefully and its an easy enough task.

warning - rooting will supposedly void your warranty . but tools are available for unrooting also . use at your discretion .

i rooted my xperia x8, flushed out all the unwanted SE junk , flashed and loaded 2.3.7 ( and very happy with it ) :)

Well, first of all that thread is to flash a ROM based on Froyo (2.2).
I don't think your phone can be upgraded beyond 2.2.

If you have rooted your phone you can use that thread to first flash a custom recovery, and then to flash the Froyo based ROM.

PS: If you didn't understood that thread then probably you just skimmed it, OR you need to read this FAQ first:

Is there any way to see flash content in android 2.1 ?

{Android flash player 11 is not installing in Android 2.1.}

^^ No. Flash is supported only 2.2 and above .

i think ur phone can be upgraded to 2.2 atleast .

installing custom rom involves couple of steps after rooting .
it also involves flashing ur existing rom.

if u r unable to backup and flash back the original rom and unroot ur phone , it will definitely void ur warranty .

so be careful tinkering with it . if u r uncomfortable or unfamiliar with the tasks , try to approach any friend who has already done it or some trust worthy mobile repair centre .

but remember , THIS is likely to void your warranty.
