Release: SKFU’s Pr0xy
SKFU’s Vita pr0xy is a generic pr0xy tool with enhancements to access the Sony services. Many people have been using it successfully as a replacement for Charles Proxy, for example to access the PSN on lower firmwares with their Vita.
SKFU’s Windows utility was featured as one of our most popular “homebrews” for the Vita this month, and this motivated SKFU to publish an update for it.
Now named “SKFU’s pr0xy” since it will work for much more than just your Vita, the tool has a few major new features and fixes. From SKFU’s release notes:
- The most user-friendly Windows Pr0xy
- Keyword filter
- Filter plugin support (users can create and share plugins)
- Rules by traffic direction
- Import & Export of rules
- Blacklist
- Raw data modification
- Fast de-/encode
- SSL Filter
- DNS Lookup
- and a lot more…
A nice alternative to Charles proxy, which is commercial software.
Network tools are becoming a new trend in console hacking: as the devices themselves are getting extremely secure, and console manufacturers like Sony and Microsoft offer an increasing amount of services online, more and more hobbyists and hackers try to look for flaws at this level of the experience. The recent Brazil PS+ bug was also a reminder that “hacks” do not necessarily require crazy technical skills, or to even hack the device.

FIRST! JK! Is there a linux version for this since Charles Proxy had one? But thanks for the release anyways. Good job! 😀
Pretty much any Linux build is a proxy server, you just have to enable/set it up. http://www.catonmat.net/blog/linux-socks5-proxy/
wil we ever play vita backup games?
its either you buy the vita games in order to play it…. its not possible for now
There aren’t enough Vita games. If someone has figured out a way, I hope they hang onto it for a little while. Hopefully with the PS4 coming out and the integration with the Vita and the recent price drops things will start rolling for this poor little handheld.
Right. “Backups” 😛 😉 we all no wat u mean
i’m with UNO on 2.02, can this tool help me get the vita games on psn+ ?
Not that I’ve been able to get working. Sony changed the Store itself earlier this year to close off the Charles exploit and that appears to have carried over to SKFU’s PSN plugin.
It might work with 2.12 or 2.61. I haven’t tried because I can’t get Fieldrunners to to transfer from my PS3. It doesn’t show up on my Vita at all no matter how many times I download it. I’m not updating the firmware until I get a good copy of Fieldrunners transferred over.
Will this allow 2.02vita to connect to psn?
good video mate, so this skfu tool is “better” than charles proxy? anyway waiting for your new video 😉
Any tutorial on how to use this?
It is possible to connect to psn and download an exploit game?
Because if it is, I would like to update to 2.12 manually (I am in 2.05) to get the best exploit for TN-v4.
Is it possible to use this or charlie proxy to play with a banned ps3 online?
cool, now all we need is TN-V4 come on Total-Noob
yes pleas my vita says i have to update my firmware all the time, i dont know how to get the proxy working
It’s enough to go to HTTP(S)Rules+ and select Raw Data Modification. There you ste up the 03.000.000 string to use 02.610.000! With this, there is no need of any custom xml and it’s way faster. Greets
I added the rule you mentioned and when I check for an update it does say that I have the latest version.
But when I try to sign into the PS Store it will prompt me to update to 3.00.
Is there another rule I should add to this?
This makes me thing, wouldn’t it be possible to create a program that tricks the vita into thinking it’s on the PS store but it’s actually on something else that provides old versions of the PSP games that were exploited? You know what I mean?
I think this would fall into the piracy category, which is illegal
But if you get access to psn you can get the exploited games and then install ark or vhbl because the games arent patched, but rather the firmware
Old versions of the PSP game? They don’t patch the game, only the firmware.
If we were able to sign games for the Vita, a kernel exploit wouldn’t be necessary to play PSP backups/out of region games.
any vhbl to order big mac and fries??
I’ll too but in spanish! / Yo hare un video explicando eso tambien.

This one is not working for me;
when running the installer I get a “SKFU’s pr0xy requires an active internet connection. Please check your internet connection and proxy” error.
Would it happen because I used Charles as well?
Oddly enough this morning I wouldn’t be able to navigate without having Charles opened, tho I did not change any setting whatsoever. Not sure about what to do.
Hi guys!
Can you tell me how use this proxy?
i mean SKFU’s Pr0xy ofc.
I got charles proxy and connect and everything works except I cannot connect to the internet with my Vita. I am connected to the network, but when I try to “update using wifi” I get errors, and I can’t use the vita browser either. What’s the problem here? I put in all the valid proxy settings as well, to no avail. I hit help on Charles and used the local ip it gave there, and used port 8888; what’s my issue?
None of the download links are working.
