wi-fi encryption password samsung-galaxy-s-5 wpa-supplicant

                          When I do cat on wpa_supplicant.conf file on Samsung mobiles, I see that the passwords are encrypted. But when I open the same file on LG mobiles, I can see the passwords in plain text.

This is what I see on my Galaxy S5. The information below is for my network which has a WPA password 77807780 (psk is the encrypted passkey):

    network={
            ssid=""
            psk=fce6c4f64304b00c5783199bbd2b1f91
            key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
            priority=10
            frequency=2462
            autojoin=1
            usable_internet=0
            skip_internet_check=0
    }

Is this a feature on Samsung mobiles? What kind of encryption is used to encrypt the password and how to decrypt them?
