You shouldn't need the write permission on. Here's mine:
# ll /dev/ttyS*
crw------- 1 root tty 4, 64 Oct 19 16:37 /dev/ttyS0
crw------- 1 root tty 4, 65 Oct 19 20:27 /dev/ttyS1
crw------- 1 root tty 4, 66 May 5 1998 /dev/ttyS2
crw------- 1 root tty 4, 67 May 5 1998 /dev/ttyS3
Make sure that your major and minor device numbers are correct. (Just a
guess.)
