Try this xml parsing

public class XMLDOMUtil {
// go thru the list of childs and find the text associated by the tag
public String getNodeTextByTag(Node parentNode, String name) {

    Node node = parentNode.getFirstChild();
    Text text = null;
    String retStr = null;

    while (node != null) {
        if (node.getNodeName().equals(name)) {
            text = (Text) node.getFirstChild();
            retStr = text.getData();
            break;
        }
        node = node.getNextSibling();
    }
    return retStr;
}

public Node getNodeByTag(Node parentNode, String name) {

    Node node = parentNode.getFirstChild();
    Node retNode = null;

    while (node != null) {
        if (node.getNodeName().equals(name)) {
            retNode = node;
            break;
        }
        node = node.getNextSibling();
    }
    return retNode;
}

public Node getNextSiblingNodeByTag(Node siblingNode, String name) {

    Node retNode = null;

    siblingNode = siblingNode.getNextSibling();

    while (siblingNode != null) {
        if (siblingNode.getNodeName().equals(name)) {
            retNode = siblingNode;
            break;
        }
        siblingNode = siblingNode.getNextSibling();
    }
    return retNode;
}

}

then on your code, 

DocumentBuilderFactory factory1 = DocumentBuilderFactory
                                    .newInstance();
                            DocumentBuilder builder1 = factory1
                                    .newDocumentBuilder();
                            XMLDOMUtil xm1 = new XMLDOMUtil();
                            ByteArrayInputStream bis = new ByteArrayInputStream(
                                    responce.getBytes("UTF-8"));
                            Document document = builder1.parse(bis);
                            String DType= xm1.getNodeTextByTag(document _user,
                                "DType");
String SId= xm1.getNodeTextByTag(document _user,
                                    "SId");...

and so on....

There is a good example using the SAXParser here: http://www.java-tips.org/java-me-tips/midp/introducing-xml-parsing-in-j2me-devices.html
