Root [Verizon] Wifi passwords not saved on sg5

Losing wifi passwords on SG5 Here is my dilemma. I've rooted the phone and looked at the wpa_supplicant.conf file with Root Explorer. Now when I connect to my router the network shows up fine. The psk number is not the correct number/password that I put in.

The line says: psk- 5391587b25ee56324ed273114c137303. When ever I put the correct password in this is what shows up.

When I reboot the phone I have to enter the correct password and it connects but doesn't save it in the psk I believe.

I also have an Lg 8" tablet that I've rooted and when I look at the same file it shows the correct password.

Any help would be appreciated.

BTW when I disconnect from the router and leave the house and return the phone will connect to the router.

Thanks in advance.
