You can use VCard to load the details of any user using asmack,

VCard vCard = new VCard();
SmackConfiguration.setPacketReplyTimeout(300000);
ProviderManager.getInstance().addIQProvider("vCard", "vcard-temp",
                    new VCardProvider());
vCard.load(connection, user_mail_id);
Log.d("Vcard XML", vCard.toXML()); // complete VCard information
byte[] bs = vCard.getAvatar();   // Avtar in byte array convert it to Bitmap

You have to iterate through the Roster Entries to get user_mail_id,

Roster roster = connection.getRoster();
Collection<RosterEntry> rosterEntries = roster.getEntries();

for (RosterEntry entry : rosterEntries) {
   String user_mail_id = entry.getUser();
}
