Answer 1

After one hour of tests the only way that works 100% is this one:

-(void)hideSearchBar
{
    if([self.tableSearchBar.text length]<=0 && !self.tableSearchBar.isFirstResponder)
    {
        self.tableView.contentOffset = CGPointMake(0, self.tableSearchBar.bounds.size.height);
        self.edgesForExtendedLayout = UIRectEdgeBottom;
    }
}

-(void)viewDidLayoutSubviews
{
    [self hideSearchBar];
}

with this approach you can always hide the search bar if is empty
