    try mount -o remount,rw /system

    @kevbost yeah that's my problem also, it comes in handy to lock people out important stuff

    You know root access is gained by exploiting vulnerabilities in the OS, right? You can't just mount the filesystem and change it to r/w to gain root.

    @drRoss I already have root access. But no write access to the system which is weird.

    Fixed root permissions with kingroot. Now I can write stuff again. (host files for adAway)

    Use busybox and supersu, if you've already got root access
