Nvidia Shield

For Nvidia Shield (2017 darcy) running Android 9.1.0

If you are currently in bootloop, download the developer or recovery image

Extract/flash using official instructions

Basically...

fastboot flash staging blob
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot reboot

Make sure you are on Android version 9.1.0; You may need to update via OTA on the Shield itself if Nvidia only has v9.0 packages on it's website.

Download Magisk 25.2 apk from official repository:

On computer...

adb install Magisk-v25.2.apk
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched-25200_dY5W3.img
fastboot reboot

You should now be able to use Magisk.

To restore/unroot

fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
