[Q] WPA_SUPPLICANT file restore from nandroid backup

Hello,

I formatted my rooted Galaxy S4 stock ROM to Cri5Barebonev3 with VoLtaqe Kernel.

I had taken a Nandroid backup of the stock ROM before format.

Now I need to restore the WI-FI profiles from the Nandroid backup to the new one.

So i extracted the '/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf' file from the Nandroid backup ('data.ext4.tar.a' file) and copied all the network entries to
to the new ROM to the file '/data/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf' file .

The new AP's don't show and as I read, I need to restart the phone, but when I do so, somehow the wpa_supplicant.conf file returns to the original.

So I suspect the file gets auto generated on startup and the actual entries are saved somewhere else.

I couldn't find that file, neither by searching in the phone nor on the internet.

So where is that file and how can I restore the network entries.

Thanks.
