Hope this works,,That link doesn't work on any browser I've tried. It is a 404 error so I think geohot must have taken it down

Im pretty sure rooting any device voids the warranty considering youre modifying system software. Nvidia is good about replacing them if youre within the year time period from the warranty. I sent mine rooted and unlocked and they didnt say a thing.Does rooting the Shield with this method prevent the red warning about voiding the warranty?

Good to know. I haven't done custom ROMs yet nor have I played around with CPU settings after rooting. All I've been doing is using Xposed Framework, Root Explorer, Greenify (Root+Xposed Functions), and a few root apps that don't mod the system except for ViPER4Android FX.nVidia couldn't care less about rooting, they just don't like custom roms.
Every article I've found so far just links to the towelroot website. Can you mirror the v1 apk?
Does anyone know if the Towel Root works with the Shield Tablet that just came out? I need that move apps to sd card because kitkat doesn't provide it.
***EDIT***
Someone told me i might have my Sd Card formatted wrong...i'll look into this
***DOUBle EDIT****
i still need to know cause if i remember correctly, you can't move the app data on any android without root access.
There's a few things I used to be able to move anything I wanted. First, when rooted, download an app called SDFix https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix then, when you want to move an "unmovable" app, in an adb shell (or in Terminal Emulator) type:If your SD card is formatted with FAT32 you can move some apps to it without root.
Go to App Info of the app and just clikc Move to SD Card.
Some apps disable it. A lot of Gameloft apps don't seem to move properly. For me some apps like The Cave and Anomaly 2 will either give an error and fail or reboot my Shield and not move anything.

Thanks for the tip.There's a few things I used to be able to move anything I wanted. First, when rooted, download an app called SDFix https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix then, when you want to move an "unmovable" app, in an adb shell (or in Terminal Emulator) type:
Then, when you are done moving your apps, I would recommend switching it back because I ran into a few errors eventually.Code:su pm set-install-location 2
Changes take effect immediately, no need to reboot.Code:su pm set-install-location 0
I hope this helps you!
