I tried different solutions about this issue, even the one selected in this post, but they didn't work.

This is the way I found to solve this issue:

UIView *subview = [[searchBar subviews] firstObject]; //SearchBar only have one subview (UIView)

//There are three sub subviews (UISearchBarBackground, UINavigationButton, UISearchBarTextField)
for (UIView *subsubview in subview.subviews)
{
    //The UISearchBarTextField class is a UITextField. We can't use UISearchBarTextField directly here.
    if ([subsubview isKindOfClass: [UITextField class]])
    {
            [(UITextField *)subsubview setClearButtonMode:UITextFieldViewModeNever];
    }
}
