The accepted answer from sunil is no longer relevant, the plugin is deprecated.

Use the following in your config.xml

<preference name="StatusBarOverlaysWebView" value="false" /> <preference name="StatusBarBackgroundColor" value="#000000" /> <preference name="StatusBarStyle" value="lightcontent" /> <plugin spec="https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-statusbar.git" source="git" />
