    I solved my problem.I changed the complete code and instead of using SOAP now I am using XMLRPC.There is XmLRPC library at http://code.google.com/p/android-xmlrpc/ and also the example of how to use this library.

    This is the link for how to parse this response in android http://inchoo.net/mobile-development/android-development/parsing-the-xmlrpc-webservice-response-in-android/

    Hope this helps someone.

    Thanks everyone for your response.
