The new tablet nVidia Shield is not only a tremendous gaming machine, but an excellent Android tablet with an almost pure KitKat Android version (like the Nexus 7). And if you have Android, obviously someone will want to get the "root" on this team. The great thing is that someone at XDA-Developers and confirmed the excellent TowelRoot tool (which we discussed in detail in the next article) can help you get the "root" in the nVidia Shield Tablet with just one click.

TowelRoot works like any other app for Android (APK). The first step is to ensure that its Android lets you install applications outside the Google Play Store. Normally you do this task going to SETTINGS> SECURITY and you enable the UNKNOWN SOURCES (these steps may vary slightly depending on the model you have Android). 
 
Then log in and download the APK towelroot.com application. Install and run the same and if all marched in order, have privileges of "root" in seconds.It's that easy! 
 
Now, some tips: 
 
Remember to do this procedure may void your warranty 
To confirm that the process completed successfully, install the aplicatiĆ³n Root Checker (free on Google Play). This makes a quick test to validate if indeed his team has "root". 
When you have privileges to "root" you are opening the door for any application can install all kinds of code into your phone. Recommendation install SuperSU (also free on Google Play) to maintain control, requesting permission each time an application wants to do a task with privileges of "root".
