I have a nexus 6 with version 6.0.1 of android flashed and rooted using Nexus Root toolkit 2.1.4.

I am trying to modify build.prop and doing adb pull/push and even trying to move it to /data/local/tmp and then mv command won't work.

Mounting /system/ rw results in a boot loop and I have to reflash.

I am unsure on how to enable modification of this file. How can I turn off this "production build" protection on android?

adb shell
shell@shamu:/ $ su
root@shamu:/ # mv /data/local/tmp/build.prop /system/ 
mv: /system//build.prop: Read-only file system
1|root@shamu:/ # mount -o rw,remount /system
127|root@shamu:/ # mv /data/local/tmp/build.prop /system/
mv: xwrite: No space left on device
1|root@shamu:/ # exit
1|shell@shamu:/ $ exit

adb push build.prop /system/build.prop
failed to copy 'build.prop' to '/system/build.prop': Permission denied

adb shell
shell@shamu:/ $ su
root@shamu:/ # mv /data/build.prop /sy                                         
sys/    system/ 
root@shamu:/ # mv /data/build.prop /system/build.prop                          
mv: /system/build.prop: Read-only file system

I'm trying to add this config option to build.prop

net.tethering.noprovisioning=true

The device has plenty of space as it was just freshly rooted and flashed with a brand new stock image.
