You're not getting inbound connections on IPv4 without a fight, although, I remember when you used to be able to pay mobile carriers to get a public IPv4 address that might have also been static(!) for VPN purposes. But it's not uncommon for carriers to give you a whole /64 on IPv6, and for that to be full proper connectivity (maybe they block smtp and smb, that's very common).

Yeah, IPv6 isn't everywhere, but if you have it on your phone and everywhere you want to access you phone from...

That's true even with a residential ISP though. It's no harder than serving off a laptop on android.

All mobile traffic is proxied today, anything inbound on a normal plan will get flagged if it’s at all disruptive.

I had some experience getting yelled at by a carrier for something like this. If your “server” is mobile, they get testy.
