The tty0 has permission:

ls -l /dev/ttyS0
crw-rw---- 1 root tty 4, 64 Sep 17 20:56 /dev/ttyS0

Is the above correct permission?

Thanks,

Those are default permissions. However those normally won't give a normal user 
access. You can change the permissions of that file/device to enable your user 
to have access.

I am typing this on my mobile and can't quickly tell you how to do that on a 
permanent basis. But for a quick change you can use 'chown' to change the owner 
to your own user.

Though, I forgot to mention that I'm in tty group so I have access to this file.
