You can just set the delay to be a float instead. So it would be

float delay = 0.1;

    dispatch_after(dispatch_time(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW, delay * NSEC_PER_SEC), dispatch_get_current_queue(), ^{
        [UIApplication sharedApplication].statusBarHidden = NO;
        [UIApplication sharedApplication].statusBarStyle = UIStatusBarStyleBlackOpaque;
    });

I had the same problem and solved it by modifying richerd's code a bit. 0.1 second is acceptable imo. I also had to change the status bar style since it returned a BlackTranslucent bar style and the original was BlackOpaque style. But works fine now.
