ios - Font Awesome Icon Not Working With UIButton IBOutlet

I'm trying to implement FontAwesome's icons in my Xcode Project. I have put in the fontawesome.ttf file into my project, and I am using code from this github to put them into the UIImageView of my UIButton: https://github.com/alexdrone/ios-fontawesome.

I am able to get the icons into my app by doing this sample code from the github Demo here: 

FAImageView *imageView = [[FAImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.f, 0.f, 100.f, 100.f)];
    imageView.image = nil;
    [self.view addSubview:imageView];

    UIImage *icon = [UIImage imageWithIcon:@"fa-github" backgroundColor:[UIColor purpleColor] iconColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:0.9 green:0.9 blue:0.9 alpha:255] fontSize:50];
    UIImageView *github = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:icon];
    CGRect rect = github.frame;
    rect.origin.y += CGRectGetMaxY(imageView.frame);
    github.frame = rect;
    [self.view addSubview:github];

However, I'm trying to put a FontAwesome icon in a UIButton's image view (which is in the storyboard connected to an IBOutlet) with this code:

self.backOneSentenceButton.imageView.image = [UIImage imageWithIcon:@"fa-backward" backgroundColor:[UIColor blackColor] iconColor:[UIColor blackColor] andSize:self.backOneSentenceButton.bounds.size];

But the icon isn't showing up at all in the button, and it's just a plain white button. Is there anything I might be missing here? Or am I doing it completely wrong? Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
