    Nvidia Shield Portable CM13 Marshmallow ROM is based on Android Marshmallow 6.0.1 which now goes official. There may be some minor bugs as this is a NIGHTLY build but this build is more or less ready to be used as a daily driver.

    Installing custom ROM requires a custom recovery to be installed on the Nvidia Shield Portable, which may VOID your warranty and may delete all your data. Before proceeding further you may consider backup your all data. You are the only person doing changes to your phone and I cannot be held responsible for the mistakes done by you. Neither the developer nor we will be held responsible for any disaster that happens to your device.
