Cannot get CORS to work when trying to list bucket contents in Google Cloud Storage (404 not found)

Question

I followed all the instructions and troubleshooting guide for CORS, but I feel like it just doesn't work. I spent the last 2 days just trying to list the contents of the bucket, and it doesn't matter how setting up my CORS for my bucket doesn't work the same.

What I use:  An angularJS client application directly connected to Google cloud storage using the JSON API from my local computer (i.e. localhost)

Follow all the tips here:

https://developers.google.com/storage/docs/cross-origin

My bucket: gf: // okrp-dev

ERROR (latest Chrome browser) XMLHttpRequest cannot load https://storage.googleapis.com/storage/v1beta2/b/okrp-dev/o . The requested resource does not have an Access-Control-Allow-Origin header. Origin 'is therefore not allowed. http://localhost

My CORS file is now (although I tried every other permutation): bash -3.2 $ gsutil cors get gs: // okrp-dev

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<CorsConfig>
    <Cors>
        <Origins>
            <Origin>*</Origin>
            <Origin>    

    http://localhost</Origin>
        </Origins>
        <Methods>
            <Method>GET</Method>
            <Method>POST</Method>
            <Method>HEAD</Method>
        </Methods>
        <ResponseHeaders>
            <ResponseHeader>*</ResponseHeader>
        </ResponseHeaders>
        <MaxAgeSec>86400</MaxAgeSec>
    </Cors>
</CorsConfig>

NOTE Authentication works fine for me. I no longer get 401. Only 404. NOTE I, of course, also fully opened all permissions on the bucket and object, and this does not help at all.

How else can I fix this problem?
