Apple Service Programs
As a service to developers, NVIDIA makes 'beta', 'rooted' and 'early access' versions of certain SHIELD system images available for download.
These packages are for software developers only and may provide: root level access by default; non-certified preview graphics drivers; beta system device drivers; or OS features that have not been fully tested. System images with root level access provide developers with root level privileges by default (ie running 'adb root' succeeds but note that the su utility is NOT included) to allow access to parts of the device typically restricted from users. Similarly, preview drivers may provide functionality not exposed in the final consumer release.
Before releasing an app or game developed on a developer OS image, the developer must confirm that the app or game runs correctly on a standard consumer OS with standard drivers and without root level access .
These images should not be flashed to consumer devices or on devices that are in every day use as many of Android's user security features can be easily bypassed.
WARNING & DISCLAIMER
By downloading a Developer OS Image, you acknowledge the security risks inherent in a preview, beta or rooted version of the Android OS and acknowledge that the OS may be unstable and that user data on a device using these images can be easily obtained by malicious software or if the device is stolen. NVIDIA does not provide any warranty and is not responsible for potential hardware damage or data loss or corruption caused by a Developer OS Image.

NVIDIA provides a rooted OS image for SHIELD ANDROID TV that matches the currently shipping public OTA. To flash the rooted image to the SHIELD Android TV, download the image for your specific device and follow the instructions listed on the Download Center entry.
Vulkan support is included in OS images with versions >= 3.0.0.
