Disable your windows firewall or configure your network as home network.
Verify your ip address and the gateway.
Ping to the ip of the server
Try also with another laptop or desktop.

Stop Apache, exit XAMPP control panel.
find and remove Remove the following portion from your httpd-xampp.conf file.

<LocationMatch "^/(?i: (?:xampp|security|licenses|phpmyadmin|webalizer|server-status|server-info))"> Require local ErrorDocument 403 /error/XAMPP_FORBIDDEN.html.var </LocationMatch>
Save it
start XAMPP control panel, Start Apache
on your mobile, browse to http://xx.xx.xx.xx/file.php where xx.xx.xx.xx is the ip address of the machine running Apache.

I use wamp server not XAMPP – leec leec May 12 '15 at 17:01
no issues, both come with latest version of Apache and have similar procedures. I personally prefer XAMPP. Read here: http://stackoverflow.com/a/19412808/2534513 – Ashesh May 12 '15 at 17:10

follow the steps:

connect your laptop and android in the same wifi, find out your server's wlan ip(for me , its : 192.168.0.103)
type 192.168.0.103 in your laptop's browser
type 192.168.0.103 in your SAMSUNG's browser(chrome)
type 192.168.0.103 in your android code , commonly use a webview

which step goes wrong?
