I believe the VX ConnectBot version provides additional support for hardware keyboards, etc. I converted to this after I picked up a 'small' hardware keyboard and found certain keys not functioning correctly on my Nexus 7 2012. Might be worth a look to see if this version will suit your needs better. Never did get comfortable with the small keyboard but it gets me out of a jam on occasion.

My experimenting is that VX COnnectBot with hardware keyboard mapping enabled doesn't seem to pass Alt+Keystrokes through correctly[1], and also I seem to be getting weird display artefacts - it seems to want to echo back the first word of every command I execute for some bizarre reason.

Possibly different standards being used here. For example Alt+Up Arrow under JuiceSSH produces "<escape>1;3A" which works with byobu-tmux, however VX ConnectBot produces "<escape>5~" which does not work.
