RC3: some StatusBar methods not working

[reedrichards]

Did it work out? I use backgroundColorByHexString but my bar is still blue…

it’s like an old timer bug which remains open…if you find something that would be awesome!

Got the same problem. Got the backgroundColorByHexString function working by setting a 1 second timeout but the blue color still appears once you open the app switcher.
