   About the Blob. There are a lot of weird stuff here about the Blob in Cordova.
   
   I used some custom file chooser (do not remember which exactly but you have to use custom file chooser, not `<input type="file">`) which returned `cdvfile` file path of the selected file → then I used `cordova-plugin-file` and it's `resolveLocalFileSystemURL` to get a link to the real file path → then I converted it to Blob and was able to sent it to the server the same way I sent File and then I wrote a comment here that everything works now... but all this was on Android API 21 emulator.
   
   When I installed my app with all my Blob stuff to the Android phone (the phone which had issues with file select)... Cordova did not allowed me to send a Blob outside the Cordova environment. That's it. You cannot send Blob, Cordova will throw you the SSL error. I dunno what it is and what to do about it, so I just found other way to deal with broken file select (by removing AndroidLaunchMode preference as I wrote above here in comments) and just stopped further dealing with the Blob.
