Sounds like Notes.app doesn't have permission to write to the database. Try SSHing into the Notes.app and:

chmod 4755 Notes

Set permissions to 755, still can't change any notes... Any more suggestions?

set permissions to 4775, it wasn't a typo. The 4 tells the program to run as root.

I had this same problem. I deleted the note.db file which allowed me to save but i souldnt delete. What fixed it was to do this:

chown mobile/var/mobile/Media/DCIM/100APPLE

I read about this and while the preson who posted it did it to fix a photo album problem, there was mention somewhere about it fixing notes if i remember correctly.
