How to get an opaque UINavigationBar on iOS 7

Question

Is there any way to make the UINavigationBar, targeted for iOS 7, a solid color with no translucency? I have tried setting the backgroundColor, the barTintColor, opaque, transparent/translucent, etc... and nothing works.

Anyone know how to do this?

Here are some chunks of code I have been using. Notice the properties I have set on the navigationBar. None of them, in any order or combination have worked.

@property (strong, nonatomic) UITabBarController *tabBarController;

testViewController = [[TestViewController alloc] init];
anotherViewController = [[AnotherViewController alloc] init];
navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc]
                            initWithRootViewController:testViewController];

navigationController.navigationBar.barTintColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor;
navigationController.navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlack;
navigationController.navigationBar.translucent = YES;
navigationController.navigationBar.opaque = YES;

NSArray *tabBarViewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
                                      navigationController,
                                      anotherViewController, nil];
self.tabBarController.viewControllers = tabBarViewControllers;

Your code lists navigationController.navigationBar.translucent = YES;

Set it to NO.
