Auto-discovery of server on local network #3

Currently the user need to insert somewhere the server address and use GCM to send it to android. This shit sucks.

There may be some cool protrocols for device discovery out there. Searching around, found these things (to investigate later):

super very easy implementation. Just add browser and get the ip on the android client.
