  Once a tabgroup is open, it cannot be closed, due to this ticket. If it is closed, on android anyway, you just see a black blank screen, and you cannot recover from it.

  If you create and open a window, then the new window will appear in the active tab (even though it has not been added as a tab to the group), with the tabgroup navigation showing above.

  If you set the navBarHidden: true property on that window and then open it, it will fill the whole screen covering the tabs.

  Hope this helps

• // Define the Window
  var win = Titanium.UI.createWindow({
      title:'Window',
      backgroundColor:'#fff'
  });
  
  var view1 = Titanium.UI.createView({ /*.....*/});
  var view2 = Titanium.UI.createView({ /*.....*/});
  var button = TItanium.UI.createButton{( /*.....*/});
  
  var tabGroup = Titanium.UI.createTabGroup();
  
  var win1 = Titanium.UI.createWindow({ /*.....*/});
  view1.add(button);
  win1.add(view1);
  var tab1 = Titanium.UI.createTab({ 
   window: win1,
   /*.....*/
  });
  
  var win2 = Titanium.UI.createWindow({ /*.....*/});
  var tab2 = Titanium.UI.createTab({ 
   window: win2,
   /*.....*/
  });
  
  
  tabGroup.addTab(tab1);  
  tabGroup.addTab(tab2);
  
  if (Titanium.Platform.name == 'iPhone OS'){
   win.add(tabGroup);
  }
  tabGroup.open();
  
  button.addEventListener('click', function(){
   tabGroup.close();
  });
  
  tabGroup.addEventListener('close', function(e){
   win.add(view2);
  });
  

• The "navBarHidden: true" worked!
  Thank you Hal H!!

  Actually, after open a new window, I want to use "android:back" like this.

  win.addEventListener('android:back', function(e){
      return false;
  });
  

  But it doesn't work.
  What should I do?
