Charles Proxy on Vita's 3.00 (working)

[Swing]

So King of Pools like Wololo said will for sure work with TN-V4 right?
I thought that the new TN-V4 will give us access to PSN store without updating FW, like the old PSP CFWs where you had access even though your FW was way older?
So do we really have to use proxy's to get on PSN no matter what?
Because just like last weekend I'm going to a lady friends for the weekend and don't want to miss anything... I'll try and check up on her computer but would I be safe if I got King of Pools incase I miss ninja release?
Is it a good idea for me to stay on 3.00? What do you guys recommend?

You ask and you shall receive. To those wanting help on linux, check on over to viewtopic.php?f=52&t=35725. New thread so as not to threadjack.

Get King of Pools, as it is cheap, and hope. Then, if you see it/it gets released, get the ninja release too. Consider King of Pools as a fallback plan.

I can't enter PSN using this method.. Everything goes well, I got the enter username and password interface after click the sign in. After click the ok button, it says to update.. What I am doing wrong?? Please help me..

@azh_97 and @ll other who are interested:

It does not work the first time.
Don't know why, but I can tell you how I got it working with Charles:

Do all in the well known Vita-Charles how-to.
Install Charles, disable Windows Firewall, setup Proxy on Vita

select "test internet connection" on the VITA

download the psp2-updatelist.xml (attached to this post)
right click on the psp2-updatelist.xml?xxxxxxxxxx file entry in http://fxx01.psp2.update.playstation.net/...
choose "Map local" and choose the psp2-updatelist.xml on your HDD
right click again and choose "Edit"
(left) click on the new "Edit entry"
in the right window, select "Query String"
click "Add" and add the variable "val" with the value "03000000"

It does still not work? continue:
with every "connection test" a new psp2-updatelist.xml?xxxxxxxxxx entry will appear under http://fxx01.psp2.update.playstation.net/...
There will be one (or even more) with "Map local" NOT active
repeat the step where you map your local psp2-updatelist.xml file
(you do NOT have to repeat the "Edit" steps)

Whenever I try it, it takes a few tries and "Map local" steps, but will work then!

I have tried your method.. Forgot to tell that my ofw is 2.02.. Maybe that's the cause of the problem since I still cannot login..

Restart your Vita. It remembers you need to update.

@Theredbaron
No, it will not. At least my 3.00 does not.
I can try as often as I want. As soon as it gets the right (manipulated) update file from the proxy, I can access the PSN and do net get any update notifications any more.

As soon as you get it right, yes. But before it gets right I guess it caches the xml. Because I have always had to restart to get it to see the new one.

I tried to restart but nothing happens.. Still prompt me to update.. My observation is that when I click sign in, a new url appear in the sequence tab on charles.. And the update prompt will appear.. When I checked, it does not tick the map local.. If PSV remembers that I required to update, so for me, it is impossible to do the map local since the URL that appearing the update does not tick with map local yet.. I can only tick the map local after the PSV has shown and remember that I have to update, right?? So, it is not possible (If the PSV really remembering the update..)

Turn on flight mode then restart
It should forget about the update then
