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 preserveUIQ are not supported.
pent0 had cancelled his Patreon account on February 2019 with The emulator emulates the reason being that he wanted EKA1 and EKA2 kernels and reimplements most critical app servers (equivalent to focus on more reverse-engineering of the Symbian operating system (Series 60 platform on Symbian OS v6.1Windows services) that was baked into , which run tasks in the N-Gage devicebackground, such as basic essentials, and to reorganize the central repository of EKA2L1 at GitHub. Additionallycommunication, the publicly available source code (presumably for the Symbian OS that was also on legacy Nokia phones graphics 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]file system.
The emulator emulates Symbian OS's EKA1 and EKA2 behavior, and re-implements most of its critical app servers, which are like the services that Windows OSes run in the background for basic essentials, communication needs and other elements such as a file system and graphical display rendering).
On March, 18th 2023, Bent, lead programmer and founder of the EKA2L1 project, announced that development of the emulator will be significantly reduced as they focus more on their personal life. more frequent updates would require an new developers to come in and help out.

'''EKA2L1''' (EPOC Kernel Architecture 2 Level 1) is an open-source, cross-platform Symbian and [[High/Low level emulation|highN-levelGage]]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, Symbian & submitting progress reports on Patreon and Reddit (via r/emulation). In February 2019, he quit Patreon in order to focus on reverse-engineering the N-Gage and reorganizing the central repository on GitHub, but would continue posting progress reports on the emulator for Windows's [https://12l1.com/ website].
