'''EKA2L1''' (EPOC Kernel Architecture 2 Level 1) is a free and open-source, [[Highcross-platform Symbian emulator. It allows users to play Symbian games by installing .sis files to an emulated device or mounting a virtual MMC or SD card. ==History==bent started development on EKA2L1 in 2017 or 2018, submitting progress reports on Patreon and Reddit (via r/Low level emulation|high). In February 2019, he quit Patreon in order to focus on reverse-level]engineering the N-Gage and reorganizing the central repository on GitHub, but would continue posting progress reports on the emulator's [https://12l1.com/ website]. While Symbian's source code was publicly available, Symbian & it was incompatible with the N-Gage emulator for Windows. On March 18, macOS2023, Linux, and Androidbent announced he would spend less time working on EKA2L1 to focus more on his personal life.

It can currently emulate EKA2L1 supports S60v1 (including the S60v1 with N-Gage), S60v2, S60v3 with N-Gage 2.0, S60v5 and , S^3 (Anna and Bella), with the most compatible and S80 devices in OS order: the N-Gage, 5320 XpressMusicwhile S^2, 5800 XpressMusic S90 and X7. N-Gage hasn't many games, but the N-Gage is still an important part of history that EKA2L1 is helping to preserve. pent0 had cancelled his Patreon account on February 2019 with the reason being that he wanted to focus on more reverse-engineering of the Symbian operating system (Series 60 platform on Symbian OS v6.1) that was baked into the N-Gage device, and to reorganize the central repository of EKA2L1 at GitHub. Additionally, the publicly available source code (presumably for the Symbian OS that was also on legacy Nokia phones and other brands' phones) was different from the binary code from the N-Gage itself. He continued with newer progress reports at his [https://12l1.com/ new site]UIQ are not supported.

The emulator emulates Symbian OS's the EKA1 and EKA2 behavior, kernels and re-implements reimplements most of its critical app servers(equivalent to Windows services), which are like the services that Windows OSes run tasks in the background for , such as basic essentials, communication needs , graphics and other elements such as a the file system and graphical display rendering).
