New BadPaddingException on new Test Phone

Question

I recently purchased and HTC One and test ran some code on it that is working fine on my old Moto Razr. I am getting a BadPaddingException, pad block corrupted. Encryption is needed just to hide a pass phrase in the preferences.. it's not critical. I'm just trying to obscure it a little. Here is the exception and below is the Class that I found on a forum. Encryption is my weak point. I am just not advanced enough yet to really grasp what is going on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for any help!
