  • If you're trying to do peer-to-peer communications between two devices that may both be behind NAT or 3G, that's a very advanced case that should not be attempted until you have significant expertise in client/server and simpler peer-to-peer cases (such as both on same Wifi). – David Schwartz Jun 22 '12 at 10:59

I believe you'll need a central server which helps with peer discovery. That's not all even getting IP might not be enough you'll have to work around issues like Net traversal ..this may help Android: NAT Traversal?
