you are getting next line because you are appending \n

To get comma separated replace "\n" with ","

String displayName = contact.getPhone(0);
                result.append(displayName + ",");

I can pretty much guarantee you that the next question is gonna be about how to get rid of the trailing comma ;) – Robby Cornelissen Jun 15 '16 at 09:12

\n used to print new line so put comma symbol (',') instead of \n

   result.append(contact.getPhone(0)+ ",");//for one person no
