Root Unable to rename bootsound_virgin.oogg

[niftypixel]

Hey All, I've just rooted the awe using cydiaimpactor and everything went smoothly. I've verified root and went to rename the bootsound_virgin.ogg (drives me nuts), I'm using ES File Explorer with root explorer enabled, and it keeps saying 'task failed', I've also tried to change the chmod of the file and that too fails. Am I doing something wrong?.

Thank you!

Is /system mounted as read only?

It sounds like you're not rooted properly. Try to re-root.

On your apk called Es root explorer make sure it has rw as in the photo I provided when its rw be careful cause what ever you do if will stick

I did, left that step out as it's 'default' per-se, installed and updated binaries immediately after root.

I've since tried a diff app (Root Browser) over ES and it did the trick no problems, go figure. Thank you for all your suggestions I was going to try em all if this hadn't worked!
