As paxdiablo said, the cursor will not be null. What you can do is try like this:

if (cur != null && cur.getCount() > 0){
     // do nothing, everything's as it should be
}

Actually i had used the db.query() and it worked for me. I did this.

cursor = db.query(TABLE_NAME, new String[] { KEY_TYPE }, null, null, null, null, null);
if (cursor != null && cursor.getCount() > 0)
{
   retVal = true;
}

TABLE_NAME is my table and KEY_TYPE was my columnname
