You were right. It appears that it's something wrong with my phones WiFi. The problem should be that it's not responding to the ARP request.
Is there anything I can do in my server/client code to make it work anyway? For example connect to the phone without sending any ARP request to it, just connect directly? I tested to open the listening port on my router and then use the networks WAN IP-address, it worked like a charm.
