Why is background not being applied to UITableView on iPad?

On an iPad View, I added a UITableView object, set its Style to Grouped, and the Background is set to Clear Color. Running the app on the simulator, I can see that the Background that I chose was not applied. (The background is still the default grayish color). I applied other colors but same thing happens. Even on the xib file, I can't see that the background color changes. Why is the background color not taking effect on my UITableView object? I'm currently using Xcode 4.3. Is this a bug on this version?
Note: This is working on iPhone.

You need to set the backgroundView instead of the backgroundColor on the table view, like this:

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    self.tableView.backgroundView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    self.tableView.backgroundView.backgroundColor = ...;
}
