Question

On iOS7.0.3 - 7.0.6, my searchBar colour is Gold/yellow colour like this:

But

Answer 1

I used next approach for changing backgroundColor of searchBar

1.As suggested by @Ben Jackson - set BackgroundImage

[self.searchBar setBackgroundImage:[self imageWithColor:[UIColor blueColor]] forBarPosition:UIBarPositionAny
                        barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];

2.Change textField to what u need according to design

NSArray *searchBarSubViews = [[self.searchBar.subviews objectAtIndex:0] subviews];
for( int i = 0; i < searchBarSubViews.count; i++) {
    if([[searchBarSubViews objectAtIndex:i] isKindOfClass:[UITextField class]]) {
        UITextField *searchTextField = (UITextField *)[searchBarSubViews objectAtIndex:i];
        [searchTextField setTintColor:[UIColor blueColor]];
        searchTextField.placeholder = @"Search";
        searchTextField.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
        searchTextField.layer.borderColor = [UIColor blueColor].CGColor;
        searchTextField.layer.borderWidth = 1.0f;
        searchTextField.layer.cornerRadius = 8.0f;
        searchTextField.leftViewMode = UITextFieldViewModeNever;
    }
}
