You can try the static busybox version, that might fix your problem. Check the FAQ thread for more info.
Nope, Still there...

Thanks GermainZ but didnt work. Look!
btw... mkdir test shows /system is only a read file
You can try installing via the recovery. You need a custom recovery for that.

Indeed. That's why we're remounting it as read/write.

Using Nook Color, CM7 nighly 107.
Got Netflix working a while back by modifying the build.prop file using ES File Explorer - no issues.
Tried again to make some mods and cannot save it anymore. ES reports "writable - NO"
Tried to "su chmod 666" it and it comes back with "File system read-only"
Is anybody else seeing this? What am I missing?
Thanks...
I encountered a similar situation during the build.prop edit while using ES File Explorer on my NC running CM7 on internal memory.
Possibly, the permissions in the program need to be changed to enable it to "write".
Here's what I did: Menu==>Settings==>Root options. "Check" Root Explorer and if my memory serves me correctly, click "Yes" to get past the "Experimental Feature", toggle the "Cyanogen Mod" (if you're using CM7) radio button, click OK and check the "Mount File System" box to make the system writable.
Now, it should be writable. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the tip, that wasn't it
I remember setting those originally. I just checked again and "Root Explorer" and "Mount FIle System" are both checked.

In 106 SU wasn't working correctly until I reinstalled it. You can't modify build.prop without superuser rights. Check the thread about SU / Superuser missing in 106 (and I bet 107) for instructions. It worked for me.

Interesting... the OP withdrew his post: (apparently it's back in 107)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131369
However when I checked it, the SU app was misbehaving, Force closing, refusing to respond to the menu command. So I reinstalled it. Now it's OK.
Unfortunately I still cannot edit the build.prop file.
I don't think it's a superuser problem because without SU access ES cannot even see the system folder!!! I can see it, and edit the file, just cannot save it.
You might try fixing permissions under recovery.
have you tried the app: nook netflix fixer?
I've changed it successfully on the past 6 consecutive nightlies using adbwireless pull/push. However since 106 I've hsd to reflash su. N108 hasn't given me the su issue. Is it fixed?
Same problem with the build.prop file: cannot save changes, or copy over it. Running in nightly 108 today. Tried both Root Explorer and ES File manager.
I think you need to change the build.prop file properties to be rw using chmod. Don't forget to mount system as rw before doing the chmod.

Tried that (sudo chmod 666...), get the same message. "file system is read-only"
backup and restore fresh start....?
I'm not great at linux but I do it differently. Try chmod +rw /system/build.prop . Make sure you have system mounted as RW first. I'd also check superuser to make sure whatever terminal/file explorer you are using still has root privileges.

666 is the same thing as +rw in this case...
It looks like the "fresh start" suggestion a couple of posts up is the best
All those numbers always confuse me . Sorry. Good luck.

Thanks! That did it!
Does anybody know why this app can modify the build.prop file while ES File Explorer cannot?
I had to mount the folder containing build.prop with rw access in order to use chmod. I think the latest version of the netflix fixer may do the same (see my post in that thread). In short, I used;
Code:
su
busybox mount -0 rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk1p3 /system
in the terminal before using the chmod command in order to give myself rw permissions in the folder. I'm only two days old at this, so it beats me why root doesn't have normal rw permissions on the folder.

Thanks for the tip. I ran the command successfully (by the way, small typo, I believe it's -o not -0) and was able to chmod and edit the file with vi.
That's where confusion began. I reboot and after the reboot I was able to modify the file without remounting the /system directory. The mount command does not surive a reboot does it?
Have you tried just pulling the build.prop
Code:
c:/<target_folder> adb pull /system/build.prop
then editing it with note pad then pushing it back and rebooting>

That is confusing. What are the full (i.e. ls -l) permissions on the file now? (It's possible that it somehow ended up with o+w, but I don't understand how - vi isn't exactly known for changing permissions on-the-fly.)

Hello,
I need some help with permission setting. Im trying to edit the pppd-ril.options file in system/etc/ppp/peers/ but it is not write enabled.
Using rooted file explorers still brings no avail to setting the write permission.
Tried to use chmod 777 using terminal emulator but it says the system is read only
Also tried exploring with QPST, but can't see the system folder at all.
I need to edit this file as it contains 3G settings I need to adjust.
Help would be much appreciated!
From the terminal
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
You seem can read chinese
haha
Thanks much! I edited the file and can finally enjoy China Telecom 3G on western ROM!

Hey Guys,
I got a simply question, I got root but I don't know if I got FULL ROOT, How to check that?
Yes, on Play Store there are 1000 of apps but I don't trust them.
Any commands from Terminal to Determine if I have Full Root?

Uhm open a terminal and make a file in "/system" I guess. You can do that using the following command: "touch /system/roottest.txt".
Better answer provided here.

Get root in terminal first by typing
Code:
su
Then mount system as RW and make a directory by typing
Code:
mount -o remount,rw system
mkdir /system/test
or, mount system using root explorer and then do this
Code:
su
mkdir /system/test
Trust me, you have full root....
Ok.
I just Check in.

adb shell mount -o remount,rw system

It have to be like that in Terminal?

I think I have a problem, what you think? It tells me that system/test is Read-Only..
use root explorer to mount system then try the mkdir again
or just root explorer to mount system..as soon as you can do that you have root.....
Full root just means you keep root after a reboot and the security of the RIC has been disabled

I am not familiar with that, which Root Explorer are you referring too?

root explorer
look on the play store
or use any explorer that can gain root...and just modify something in system...change permission, delete or make a file...
if you just reboot your phone and run an app that requires root and it works then you have full root.

There is no need... I am really unsure on why you are asking this. Seeing as you have posted loads of help posts about this I would expect you to know the difference and know that you have full root.

If you are not allowed to modify system that's because is not mounted as Rw. Go to ES, make sure you have turned on root explorer and then click on root explorer. A pop up will appear, then select where says mount system as Rw.

You see! OMG! That was the stupid thing...sooo stupid! You are the man. Now everything is working.
ES was granted by Su and it now allow me to modified System files and folders.
After executing the commands in Terminal I find a new folder named "test" in System. Thanx to @gregbradley
Thank you all!

Hi, I'm s-off, rooted, busy box installed and custom kernel with wpmod. I have to write in sys to overwrite the awb_cal file in /sys/android_camera_awb_cal, but i can't write in sys. I can't even create a new folder. Can i push the file in sys using fast boot and adb? I had the idea to change the file in custom rom zip, but the folder sys is not present in there..Please help me!

I need your help, I have problem when trying to install xposed framework, here's what it says (I translated it from russian, there may be mistakes):

Bump.
If you want to intall xposed framework you have to flash xposed-v67-sdk21-arm(64/x86).zip (depending on your phone) in custom recovery, i.e. TWRP. After that just install XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk and enable your modules.
