You can set these values

In app Delegate :

- (BOOL)prefersStatusBarHidden {
      return YES;
}

in viewWillAppear :

[UIApplication sharedApplication].statusBarHidden = YES;

add "View controller-based status bar appearance = NO" in your .plist file.

and also add Status bar is initially hidden = YES

that works for me.
