Regarding the TypeError issue, please refer to this recent JavaScript SDK issue for more information and a workaround:

(Note that filesDownload and filesGetThumbnail download data in the same way.)
The ".tag" value is expected. That identifies the type of the entry, and will be one of "file", "folder", or "deleted", not the file type. For the file type, please refer to the file extension in the path or name.

Hi again, I fixed that issue, but I have one more question that I couldn't find answer for.
filesDownload or filesGetThumbnail returns object with fileBinary property. I can't in any way I tried convert that data to image.
Most of the time I get this exception
DOMException: Failed to execute 'btoa' on 'Window': The string to be encoded contains characters outside of the Latin1 range.
Unless I do this
... img.src='data:image/jpeg;base64,' + window.btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(response.data.fileBinary))); ...
But again it is unreadable
And here is screenshot of original fileBinary data and converted data with code above
