This also didn't help. Is there any invalidate method I have to call at a
certain time? The dataProvider might be empty after this but it feels as if
my TileList has still garbage in it or I need to wait until a screen
refresh. The exception also occurs somewhere in the depths of the component
structure, not in my app, here's the stack trace in case it helps.
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.

Odd... did you try setting the dataprovider to a new object instead of
setting it too null?
You could also try:
yourTileListID.dataProvider.removeAll();

Thanks Clint, but all of them result in the same exception. Any other ideas?

I would try any new non-null complex type:
new Object();
new Array();
new ArrayCollection();

I'm trying to initialize a TileList after items were put into it so that it
is empty again and I can load new items into it after that. I'm setting the
TileList dataprovider to null but when I then try to load new items into it,
it gives me an exception: Parameter child must be non-null.
What would I have to do additionally to properly initialize the TileList?
