ios7 UITableViewCell selectionStyle won't go back to blue

Question

Xcode 5.0, iOS 7 and updating an existing app. UITableView selected row is now gray, not blue.

From what I've read they changed the default selectionStyle to gray. But "Blue" is still an option in IB and UITableViewCellSelectionStyleBlue still exists. Checking out the new HIG, it doesn't look like they removed the blue and the "Settings" app still using blue cell selection.

I've tried setting the value in IB and in code, but no luck. Any ideas on what I need to do to get the blue selection style back?

There is only one selectionStyle in iOS7, to change you need to do this manually like below:

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {      ....     UIView *bgColorView = [[UIView alloc] init];     bgColorView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:(76.0/255.0) green:(161.0/255.0) blue:(255.0/255.0) alpha:1.0]; // perfect color suggested by @mohamadHafez     bgColorView.layer.masksToBounds = YES;     cell.selectedBackgroundView = bgColorView;     ....     return cell; }
