How-to
Notes
TWRP builds for this device are based on LineageOS device trees.
TWRP (foster) names SHIELD Android TV 2015, 2015 Pro, and 2017. LineageOS foster also names 2019 Pro.
LineageOS also ships a tablet-UI build of the same hardware, not a separate device. Its TWRP page is the 2019 unit.
LineageOS 14.1, 15.1, 17.1, 18.1, and 20 are available. Install with fastboot.
ADB debloat does not root the device.
