Using org.json

If you have a String containing JSON format text, then you can get JSON Object by following steps:

String jsonString = "{\"phonetype\":\"N95\",\"cat\":\"WP\"}";
JSONObject jsonObj = null;
    try {
        jsonObj = new JSONObject(jsonString);
    } catch (JSONException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

Now to access the phonetype

Sysout.out.println(jsonObject.getString("phonetype"));
