Hello. I'm running aosp nougat 7.1.1 rooted on a oneplus 3t. All the apps that require root work fine. Automagic also has root action and all the actions that need it seem to work fine. However,browsing the file system, for example system/media doesn't work. Using action execute root command to copy a file to that location gives an error: read-only file system.
Reading and copying files is possible though with any root browser.
Why is this happening. Am I doing something wrong? Is there something wrong with the way AM implements root actions? I remember this problem started back with Android 6. What's the solution?

Re: Proper root acces
Hi
/system is mounted as read only filesystem by default
root browsers remount /system as r/w if they want to access files on it
In your flow you must remount /system as r/w, for example using action "Execute root command" with command:
mount -o remount,rw /system
