How will this impact microg hw use. Google has initiated the end if life status for android 12.0 with termination of security updates. This may impact microg hw, gbox, gspace function.

Then what method is used to support android 12 operating system in Huawei devices? Users need to know this information.

It is the OEM (Huawei in this case) that release ROM updates directly.

The "update" from Google of system components is just a thing to update components in less time and without OEM support but they never been really needed if the OEM provide timely ROM updates.

Ok, thanks for the clarification. Though if android 12.0 is no longer offering security updates it is unclear how Huawei OEM will address this issue.
