statusbar background color same as barImage iphone

I want my statusbar to have the same background color as my barImage.

If I use barColor it works, but I need to use barImage.

This is my window, it has a black statusbar.

var win = Titanium.UI.createWindow({  
    titleControl:Ti.UI.createLabel({text:"Titletext",font:{fontFamily:"Helvetica",fontSize:"20dp",fontWeight:"bold"},color:"#fff"}),
    url:"home.js",
    backgroundColor:'#F5F5F5',
    statusBarStyle:Titanium.UI.iPhone.StatusBar.LIGHT_CONTENT,
    navTintColor:"#fff",
    translucent:false,
    barImage:"images/navbar.png",
    //barColor:"#b7d9bc",
    tabBarHidden:true,
    hideShadow:true
});

If I use the following code instead, the statusbar has the same color as the navbar (barColor), this is what I want, but I need to use barImage because I need to set the hideShadow property to true (ignored if I don't have a barImage)

var win = Titanium.UI.createWindow({  
    titleControl:Ti.UI.createLabel({text:"Titletext",font:{fontFamily:"Helvetica",fontSize:"20dp",fontWeight:"bold"},color:"#fff"}),
    url:"home.js",
    backgroundColor:'#F5F5F5',
    statusBarStyle:Titanium.UI.iPhone.StatusBar.LIGHT_CONTENT,
    navTintColor:"#fff",
    translucent:false,
    //barImage:"images/navbar.png",
    barColor:"#b7d9bc",
    tabBarHidden:true,
    hideShadow:true
});

Using titanium SDK 3.2.3.

I know I can make a custom navbar, but isn't there any easier solution?
