[Q] Change system files for the G-nex?

Hi. I'm tying to replace the Host file in Systems/etc, but keep getting the "you can not paste here because the file system is read-only" error.
Any ideas?

Using Root explorer
Rootfs is mounted as (r/w)

Where is the internal Rom?

I can never figure this out and its always different it seems. So I'm trying to copy my build prop from /system to my internal ROM sdcard so I can mount the infinity to windows, open it up and edit it, then copy it back to system.
So i'm using root explorer, copying the file, and I tried everything. I tried /sdcard, mnt/sdcard, data/media and everytime I mount the device and look in my downloads folder where I pasted it from root explorer, its not there!
argh
Copying should work normally, symlinks won't. I can't say anything for Root Explorer, try either Solid Explorer or Total Commander.
Personally I like to just use the term for this ("cp /system/build.prop /sdcard/" will do)

Cannot remount system as rw

I have a Sony Xperia M2 D2303 mobile and I have just rooted using kingroot. I have checked that device is rooted using root checker. My problem is that I cannot remount system folder as rw.
so I cannot copy any file to /system folder. When I try to install an application as a system app to /system folder it fails. I have tried ES file explorer to set write permission to system folder but without success.
What can I do?

Can't delete folder via adb or twrp

Hi guys,
as the title states, I'm not able to delete the folder "/sdcard" I created.
What I tried:
TWRP:
File manager > Go into folder > Delete - error 1
Mount system > File manager > Go into folder > Delete - error 1
Mount system and Micro SD card > File manager > Go into folder > Delete - error 1
Mount everything > File manager > Go into folder > Delete - error 1
ADB:
adb shell rm -rf /sdcard - resource busy
adb shell mount -o remount,rw and then rm -rf /sdcard - resource busy
Why is this folder there?
Well, I have this HTC e8 with barely no battery and when I was installing LOS yesterday there was a power outage and it corrupted the installation. After being able to go into recovery I lost the touch controls in TWRP. Went via adb and didn't remember the path to the sd card, so I could send the restore command. After trying the ls and find commands and end up with millions of records my "brilliant" idea was to use the mkdir command to test for the common sd card path names...
Anyway, after reinstalling LOS (with wipe data) I noticed it didn't let me use the sd card without formatting. Then I went into TWRP File Manager and found out the "/sdcard" folder I created had all the folders that LOS usually creates in my sd card (which the path is "/external_sd"). So now I need to delete this folder and reinstall everything again so that LOS can see "/external_sd" as the true sd card path
Do you guys have any suggestion I can try here?
Thanks in advance
You cannot operate on a folder / file that is currently in use by another process - this might be a daemon or whatever: If you try nevertheless then you get error message "Resource is busy" or similar.
When I try to mount a partition then I always do it this way
Code:
cd /
mount -o rw,remount <mount_point>
what always worked for me.
