May be something is changed in firmware? Or I am doing something wrong? But the dictutil told me that it was OK
Can you enable the `sync` category for logging in developer options, install the dictionary, perform a sync, and send me the log files (specifically the part about the dictionary sync command)? It should contain a line like "dicthtml... marked as read-only.. skipping".

Also, after running dictutil, see if the read-only checkbox is set in the file properties.
