Moved my /system/build.prop file to another directory and phone wont display anymore. I can adb into device. Any suggestions? When I try to move the file back to system it says permission denied. Help please!

You need to mount your system while in recovery then use adb remount. That should work

Nice work.

And let this be a lesson, don't go and move things out of the /system if don't know what it is or does.
