The behavior of back button is intentional to avoid accidental closing J, you 
can use Term menu file quit. Or type exit 0 (2!:55[0) in Term.  Alternatively 
there is an option for back button to close J. This, together with F virtual 
keys, are documented in jqt/android jwiki page.

J keyboard service comes with Michael Dykman's J Console for android, it is 
also mentioned in jqt/android wiki page.
