                                 [UIColor yellowColor], NSForegroundColorAttributeName,
                                 nil]
                       forState:UIControlStateNormal];

self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem=backBtn;

popToRoot ViewController:

- (IBAction)popToRoot:(UIBarButtonItem*)sender {
[self.navigationController popToRootViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
