sure, assuming you have:
A. some kind of root level file explorer (ES File explorer, root explorer, etc)
B. once in said root level file explorer, you set the /system partition to be read/write (in root explorer, just tap the r/w at the top of the screen when in /system)
Thanks for answer.. Yes i have root explorer just was wondering if this files are not connected to some other settings..
If Im not mistaken you can just make a folder in the root of your internal SDcard and name it ringtones. Put all the files in that folder and reboot your phone. The tones should them be selectable in the ringtones menus

basically, i transferred a bootanimation.zip file to the evo by dropbox. went to use astro file manager to delete the one on the device, and copy/move (tried both), and it just didnt work.
so is there a file manager that is known to be able to handle system files??
I haven't had any problems manging any files with estrongs file explorer
Did you mount /system as read/write first? Doesn't sound like it.
Root explorer is about as good as it gets. Cheap but not free

Data/App
Use root explorer and navigate to the "Data" folder and then navigate to the "App" folder and they should be in there.

I've used SolidExplorer and Astro and no "App" folder is in the Data folder..

I don't believe either one of those allows you to access the root of your phone, but I could be wrong. That is where they should be stored.
another recommend for root explorer.
Also can be found in /data/app-private

It is data/app in system root not internal sd card. There is not an app folder in data on the internal card. Solid explorer works.
I am able to see the /data folder by using ES FILE EXPLORER (root mode), but I am unable to see any of it's contents. I am willing to past some app folder data from a nandroid backup there.
Ok, found it, ES file explorer was without root.
My c567b190 is rooted but I can't seem to be able to edit the build.prop file. Using ES Rile Explorer with Root Explorer enabled I can see all the system folders but when I try to edit and save the build.prop file it doenst work. I can copy the build.prop file to my external sd card, edit it, save it, then copy it back to /system though. I just cant edit the file directly from /system.
Any ideas?

Same here. Not sure why it can't copy from /storage/emulated to /system.
Even setting /system as rw does nothing.
Use Root Explorer instead.
Actually, that reminds me, it's the same with QuickEdit Pro. It can't edit files in /system either, which is a bummer because it's a pretty nice editor.
Any way to edit XML files im trying as well trying to get headphones boost
when we copy the files from/to root directory after getting SU access,we cant see the progress with "cp" command.I am using RootTools.
But how the es file explorer does the same as if they are just java.io files ??
