The file could be digitally signed. By editing you change the hash value that will be computed when the file is checked for integrity. Just a wild guess.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I don't know I tried ImHex and with it I am able to change values now... I don't know why
Maybe your other editor messed up the encoding?
I don't know these programs. Some hex editors are weird about editing, I use bvi to edit and it works pretty good for me.
Yeah I tried ImHex and with it I am able to change values now... I don't know why
Cool if it works. Stick with what works for you
