Test code:

   var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({
         backgroundColor: 'white'
       });
       var textArea = Ti.UI.createTextArea({
         borderWidth: 2,
         borderColor: '#bbb',
         borderRadius: 5,
         color: '#888',
         font: {fontSize:20, fontWeight:'bold'},
         keyboardType: Ti.UI.KEYBOARD_NUMBER_PAD,
         returnKeyType: Ti.UI.RETURNKEY_GO,
         textAlign: 'left',
         value: 'I am a textarea',
         top: 60,
         width: 300, height : 70
       });
       win.add(textArea);
       win.open();

Hi guys, any news on this? returnKeyType is not working for Ti.UI.KEYBOARD_TYPE_PHONE_PAD... Thanks

Won't fix as natively it isn't supported. The proper native method of doing this is adding a toolbar to the textfield.
