I've used Quassel ( http://www.quassel-irc.org ) for a similar purpose.

An Android client, QuasselDroid ( http://quasseldroid.iskrembilen.com/ ), has been my best IRC experience on Android.

By the way, we are currently rewriting the Android client — with material design, far more features, and hopefully better notifications.

ETA is around April.
