Apply Custom Colors to the iPhone Status Bar

Looking to change the iOS status bar color? Developer RiDan has released Status Color to provide jailbreakers with a simple way to do just that. Once installed, Status Color adds RGB sliders to Settings -> StatusColor, allowing the user to pick any hue possible. This is a great way to match home screen backgrounds and create a unique look.
