# Parses all Android config files (json/db/xml) in the /data/ folder and returns an easy-to-handle DataFrame

### Some things you have to know:

- You need root access 
- I have only tested it against BlueStacks / Windows 10 / Python 3.9.
- The parsing might take a while and the DataFrame might get huge. (103,000 rows on my BlueStacks emulator with 3 apps installed [Roblox, YouTube, GloboTV]
- It ignores all Exceptions, but prints them out. Usually, you can ignore them because, most of the time, they are thrown because of empty files 
- Don't use the sed columns yet (search and replace) on a real device. You could screw up your cell phone.
