Answer 1

You can override UINavigationBar drawRect. The code can be placed to appDelegate.m I've tested it and it's working on 3x and 4x iOS.

@implementation UINavigationBar (UINavigationBarCategory)
- (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect {
    UIColor *color = [UIColor blackColor]; //tint color
    UIImage *img = [UIImage imageNamed: @"navBarBg.png"]; // your image
    [img drawInRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, self.frame.size.width, self.frame.size.height)];
    self.tintColor = color;
 }@end
