更改UINavigationBar的背景颜色

Question

I'd like to change the background color of an UINvaigationBar and I used tintColor property but it's not changing the color. You can checkout the code below.

In my Appdelegate I create a UITabBarController

tabbar = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];

Then I create a UINavigationController and attach my UITableViewController to it

UINavigationController *myNavigation = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:myViewController];

Then attached the UINavigationControllers to my tabbar like this

[tabbar setViewControllers:viewControllers]; //viewControllers is an array of UINavigationControllers

I tried setting the property tintColor in myAppdelegate like this

[[myNavigation navigationBar] setTintColor:[UIColor redColor]];

But this didn't work as expected and so I tried the same in my ViewController

 - (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
        [super viewWillAppear:animated];
        [self.navigationController.navigationBar setTintColor:[UIColor blackColor]];
        self.navigationController.navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlack;
        self.navigationItem.title = @"Test";
    }

And still nothing happens. Please checkout the image below to see how navigation bar looks now.

Appreciate your help.

As a work around you may can use image on place of tint color please check below code for same.

if ([myNavigation respondsToSelector:@selector(setBackgroundImage:forToolbarPosition:barMetrics:)]) {
        [myNavigation setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:BAR_IMAGE_NAME] forbarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
    }else {
        [myNavigation insertSubview:[[[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:BAR_IMAGE_NAME]] autorelease]  atIndex:0];
    }
