Custom tiles to Android?

I'd love to get custom tiles in my Android? I mean, I would like to have the possibility to define in an Android App's setting's that I want the App to show me specific tiles based on a TMS (or WMS?) URL.

So far I have only found gvSIG that would seem to offer this option -- but I don't get at least its TMS to work; I've tried adding http://tile.stamen.com/toner-lite/{Z}/{X}/{Y}.png and http://tile.stamen.com/toner-lite/{zoom}/{x}/{y}.png but neither seem to work (and the latter works fine in JOSM).

Not to make this a gvSIG-specific question (which I need to ask the developers of that app I'd like to know if anyone has found an Android App that would offer this functionality?

-- Side note -- I'd especially love to see the Stamen Satellite+Labels (via http://fieldpapers.org/make-canned-atlas-template.html) tiles but also other tiles that are not available on any app I know of (such as Stamen Watercolor) but there are a number of other interesting tiles out there that are not on mobile apps.

I bit more information would help here. You say "but I don't get at least TMS to work". Does that mean:

You've got a mapping application on your Android phone and would like to configure it to use customised tiles from somewhere different that you will supply?
You're accessing a web site from your Android phone and would like to know of another one that allows you to define customised tiles somehow?
Something else?

Thanks for the comment. I've revised the question. Is it now more understandable?
