Better Go with more simpler way by using org.json lib. Just do a very simple approach as below:

JSONObject obj = new JSONObject();
obj.put("phonetype", "N95");
obj.put("cat", "WP");

Now obj is your converted JSONObject form of your respective String. This is in case if you have name-value pairs.

For a string you can directly pass to the constructor of JSONObject. If it'll be a valid json String, then okay otherwise it'll throw an exception.
