Presenting UIImagePickerController removes the NavigationBar on the current controller

I have a tab bar application with several controllers. Some are UINavigationControllers, some just simple UIViewControllers. The central button presents the UIImagePickerController to allow the user to take a picture. When I present the Image Picker from a simple UIViewControllers, it works fine. But when I present it while a UINavigationController is currently the selectedViewController, the dismall of the picker removes the UINavigationBar of the controller.

I read that with UINavigationControllers, the modal view must be presented from the navigationController, but it does not work either. Here are bunches of code :

    UIImagePickerController* picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
    picker.delegate = self;
    if (TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR)
    {
        picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeSavedPhotosAlbum;
    }
    else
    {
        if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera])
        {
            picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
        }
        else
        {
            UIAlertView* alert = [[UIAlertView alloc]
                                  initWithTitle:@"Erreur"
                                  message:@"Pour pouvoir poster des photos, votre device doit posséder un appareil photo"
                                  delegate:self
                                  cancelButtonTitle:@"OK"
                                  otherButtonTitles:nil];
            [alert show];
            return;
        }
    }
    if ([self.selectedViewController respondsToSelector:@selector(presentViewController:animated:completion:)])
    {
        [self.selectedViewController presentViewController:picker animated:YES completion:nil];
    }
    else
    {
        [self.selectedViewController presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
    }

the dismall :

[self.selectedViewController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];

Has anyone got this strange behavior (guess it has something to do with the fact that UIImagePickerController delegate must implement UINavigationControllerDelegate) and know how to resolve that? Thanks.

It was actually really more simple : in the viewWillAppear, I set the hidden property to NO and in the viewWillDisappear I set it to YES. The thing is : when the modal controller is presented, the viewWillDisappear was called. But when it was dismissed, the viewWillAppear was not called... Not really the expected behavior, but still. Thanks guys.

You can redirect to pickerController using this

[self presentViewController:picker animated:YES completion:^{}];

And its delegate method

-(void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController*)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary*)info
{
    NSData *dataImage = UIImageJPEGRepresentation([info objectForKey:@"UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage"],1);
    [picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{}];
}

- (void)imagePickerControllerDidCancel:(UIImagePickerController *)picker
{
    [picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}

Or

Make sure that you are not setting any setHidden in your Code.
