Hello all,

I'm trying to consume WCF service in android client but I'm getting following error :
java.lang.string cannot be converted to jsonobject

here is my code :

Android :

public class MainActivity extends Activity 
{
	private final static String srvc_uri = "http://101.63.53.242/StudentWcfServiceforAndroid/service1.svc/GetName/";
	private EditText idTxt;
	private Button btn;
	private TextView tv;
	

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        
        idTxt = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText1);
        btn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
        btn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() 
        {
			@Override
			public void onClick(View v) 
			{
				// TODO Auto-generated method stub
				try
				{
					DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
			    	// http get request
			    	HttpGet request = new HttpGet(srvc_uri + idTxt.getText());

			    	// set the hedear to get the data in JSON format
			    	request.setHeader("Accept", "application/json");
			        request.setHeader("Content-type", "application/json");

			        //get the response
			        HttpResponse response = client.execute(request);

			        HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();

			        //if entity contect lenght 0, means no students exist in the system with these code
			        if(entity.getContentLength() != 0) 
			        {
			        	// stream reader object
			        	Reader reader = new InputStreamReader(response.getEntity().getContent());
				        //create a buffer to fill if from reader

			        	reader.read(buffer);
				        //close the reader streams
			        	reader.close();

			        	//for the student json object
				        JSONObject s =  new JSONObject(new String(buffer));
				        
				        //Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), s.getString("StudentName"), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
				        tv.setText(s.getString("StudentName"));
			        }  
				}
				catch(Exception ex)
