A blob does have to be made from a str. How your image became
unicode, I don't know. By Java-client, you mean a program that's
calling a web service? It's hard to see how it would matter what kind
of client it is because the server has nothing but the HTTP headers
and body. Without knowing what exactly the request contained and how
you extracted the 'image' variable, I can't speculate further. It's
possible the Java program is setting a header differently or
formatting the variables differently that is somehow triggering
Unicode, but I can't think of how.
