{
string=Wireless; string=Access Wireless; string=anyType{}; string=anyType{}; string=00001; string=--;

{
string=International TopUp; string=Peru Movistar Top-Up  $5 - $75; string=Hussain; string=0345339; string=anyType{}; string=--;
};

}

I know how to parse a response that returns List. I was using this code

HttpTransportSE htp = new HttpTransportSE(URL);

            htp.call(SOAP_ACTION, soapEnvelop);

            response = (SoapObject) soapEnvelop.getResponse();

            if (response != null) {

                if (response.getPropertyCount() > 0) {
                    InternationalTopup.arr_Items = new String[response
                            .getPropertyCount()];
                    for (int i = 0; i < response.getPropertyCount(); i++) {
                        InternationalTopup.arr_Items[i] = response.getProperty(
                                i).toString();

                    }
                }
            }

but I have no idea how to parse the above response. Do i have to use Json? Please provide some examples and share your experience. Any help will be appreciated. thanks

If you service built on WCF and if you can return json, then you don't need to use KSoap. There's a detail example, in my blog. Please refer this
