Is there a good Android app for using offline OpenStreetMap maps? My primary goal is to have maps that work when I have no connectivity. I'd like to download the entire US (or perhaps another country if I am traveling) and be able to navigate hiking trails where no cell service exists.

One thing I like about Osmand for driving is that it tells you which lane(s) you should to be in for the next turn/junction/roundabout. It's especially useful for large junctions and/or in busy traffic. I've had it do the "detour route" that you talk about, but it's never been anything major like a complete square that's lead to wasting time.
