I suspect servers are blocked by my mobile ISP (makes sense!), but I never got to the bottom of it.

Many mobile ISPs run NAT, you don't even get a public IP of your own during the session, just an internal one.

Thanks! Is there a way to do it? It must support bi-dir streams, they just need to be initiated from the phone.

You can use a tunnel like https://pagekite.net/ it seems they support Android.

Alternatively, you can DIY by connecting to some other machine using SSH and establishing a reverse tunnel.
