Single quotes in sqlite on android

Question

I am getting the value from webservice. Some of my values come with single quotes. Like this sample's sqlite is not supporting single quotes. So I replace them with double quotes. While I then retrieve the value from db, I am not able to parse the value. I am getting parser exception not wellformed. Can anybody tell me how to do this?

this is my code replacing single quote to double quote

              stockservicevalue=stockservicevalue.replaceAll("'", "\"");

this is my retrieving value from db

String sql = "SELECT * FROM MyQuest;";

The log:
