Description

Post Module to dump the password hashes for Android System. Root is required.
To perform this operation, two things are needed. First, a password.key file
is required as this contains the hash but no salt. Next, a sqlite3 database
is needed (with supporting files) to pull the salt from. Combined, this
creates the hash we need. Samsung based devices change the hash slightly.
