About LinkBacksWhy are every directories in read-only mode? (CHMOD: 755) It would not be a problem but I can't even change them because it says "FileOp Failure on: /home/adlersen/public_html/wp-content/upgrade: Read-only file system"...

0755 is considered "secure" permission for folders used for serving website content.
If you want to change them(to 0777), use cPanel >> File Manger > Change Permissions.

Fair warning that attempting to access any file or folder that is set to 777 will instantly error out with a 500 internal server error, so try to avoid it at all costs.
TOS breakers will be suspended regardless of race, creed, national origin, hair color, or favorite food. Thanks for your understanding!

But the WordPress Update requires the 777, but I can't modify the folder permissions neither in the cPanel nor with my FTP client. o.O

A 0755 should do the work, you probably are mixing it with ROFS (Read-only file system) issue that has struck most of the fellow x10 users.
Are you receiving a dialog box asking for "connection information" ?
If yes, wait for this ROFS issue to be sorted out and then try again.
If it fails, then take a backup of your current site and do the upgrade on your localhost(linux with 0777) and then upload it again(with 0755).
Merci !
