Tested this issue In SDK 4.1.1.GA, Android version 5.1.1, Google Nexus 7. TextField.setSelection is working as expected. CODE SAMPLE

   var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({
     backgroundColor: 'white'
   });
   
   var textField = Ti.UI.createTextField({
     borderStyle: Ti.UI.INPUT_BORDERSTYLE_ROUNDED,
     color: '#224466',
     top: 10, left: 10,
     width: 250, height: 60
   });
   
   var button = Titanium.UI.createButton({
      title: 'Hello',
      top: 80,
      width: 100,
      height: 50
   });
   
   button.addEventListener('click',function(e)
   {
      textField.setSelection(2, 10);
   });
   
   win.add(textField);
   win.add(button);
   win.open();

You can try to use the latest SDK if you still run into this error.
