I have just met the same situation. I created my app with Read only, then I used with that for a while. Later, I wanted to post, so I switched to Read and Write. I kept re-requesting the access token, but that didn't work.
The user still have "read-only" in their Setting/Connection tab. Revoke, then authorize app again. Problem solved. (This make sense, because user didn't give app the permission to write at first place.) Hope this helps.
