If the windows laptop is bridging you might have issues, Wireless isn't designed to have multiple devices behind a client connection so you may find the Pi isn't getting an IP from the phone. A safer option would be to setup the laptop doing internet connection sharing which will make the laptop act as a natting router for the Pi
