Description

We're using a black status bar and the StatusBarStyleLightContent to simulate the pre-iOS 7 status bar with the status bar plugin. When a user takes a photo or choose from library the status bar style goes back to black; making a black status bar with black text. My quick fix is to add in CDVCamera under navigationController:willShowViewController:animated to set the status bar style back to white: [[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarStyle:UIStatusBarStyleLightContent];, but of course this only works for me since I want the status bar style to be white everywhere in my application.
