I asked for this but currently it only supports downloading tiles around a location. Still works ok and the tiles can be stored in sqlite to reduce space.

No it not "hopeless"!
You have to download maps or tiles with any solution so it makes no difference. First download the tiles at home for a selected area once then you can use everything offline in that area.

but it's so limited it's not like the navit where you can download a map for a entire country

You can't (currently) download a country but you can batch-download a specific area. ModRana can do it on its own but it is generally better to use third-party solutions for that since in the former case the CPU usage gets quite high for some reason and the device can get a) unresponsive to the point it appears locked up and fool the user to rebooting it; and b) hot.
