Setting navigation bar color in UITableViewController.

I have a fairly simple application with a UITableViewController and a UINavigationController

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
    // Override point for customization after application launch.
    self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];

    OverviewTableViewController *overview = [[OverviewTableViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"OverviewTableViewController" bundle:nil];
    UINavigationController *nav = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:overview];

    self.window.rootViewController = nav;
    [self.window makeKeyAndVisible];

    return YES;
}

In my OverviewTableViewController I tried setting a color for the navigation bar like this, but it doesn't seem to work

self.navigationController.navigationBar.tintColor = [UIColor blueColor];
self.navigationController.navigationBar.translucent = TRUE;

I know I can do it in didFinishLaunchingWithOptions like this: 

nav.navigationBar.tintColor = [UIColor blueColor];
nav.navigationBar.barTintColor = [UIColor blueColor];
nav.navigationBar.translucent = YES;

How can I do this in my UITableViewController?

In your OverviewTableViewController's viewDidLoad 

 - (void)viewDidLoad
    {
        [super viewDidLoad];

        UIColor *bg = [UIColor blueColor];
        [self.navigationController.navigationBar setBarTintColor:bg];
        [self.navigationController.navigationBar setTranslucent:YES];
        [self.navigationController.navigationBar setBarStyle:UIBarStyleBlack]
    }

In your OverviewTableViewController, you can refer to the navigationController using self.navigationController.

So, you can do with the code below.

UINavigationController *nav = self.navigationController;
nav.navigationBar.tintColor = [UIColor blueColor];
nav.navigationBar.barTintColor = [UIColor blueColor];
nav.navigationBar.translucent = YES;
