If the $_FILES array is empty at this point, the the possibilities that 
come to mind are:

1) Your javascript is broken
2) Something is blocking the file upload
3) A webserver configuration issue (see 2)

Have you tried using a very simple html form based upload instead? That's 
a lot simpler to code in html than all that javascript, and should at 
least enable you to verify that it is (or is not) possible to transfer 
files from the browser to the server.

<html>
<head>
<title>test upload</title>
</head>
<body>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="" method="POST">
Send this file: <input name="userfile" type="file">
<input type="submit" value="Send File">
</form>
<pre>
<?php
if ( isset( $_FILES['userfile'] ) )
    print_r( $_FILES );
else
    echo "Nothing";
?>
</pre>
</body>
</html>

I assume that https://testserver.com/FileUpload/upload_file.php is a url 
that you have crafted to conceal the actual url, otherwise you might want 
to change it to the actual webserver url you are using.

I have no idea what the purpose of the js to set options.mimeType to 10 
or so different values one after the other is - but it ends up as "video/
ogg" - if this is meant to be the mimetype of the uploaded file then the 
method of determining and setting it appears flawed.

In fact I have no idea what most of the js is meant to do, and if the 
above mentioned php test proves that the simple file upload from your 
browser to your server is working, I suggest you find a phonegap forum 
for more specific assistance with your problem.
