Notification bar appears all white in light mode

Question

I'm using Template 10 and in Windows 10 Mobile when I choose the light mode, the notifications bar appears all white

and can not see the notifications, the hours, etc.

In the dark mode everything seems fine image:

How do I solve this?

Answer 1

I do this in my hamburger's override for UIElement CreateRootElement() after my database setup/migrations are done.

 if(Template10.Utils.DeviceUtils.Current().IsPhone()){
   var statusBar = Windows.UI.ViewManagement.StatusBar.GetForCurrentView();
   if(statusBar != null)
   {  
       if(Application.Current.RequestedTheme == ApplicationTheme.Light)
          //background && foreground or combination, and dependent on color choices
          statusBar.ForegroundColor = Windows.UI.Colors.Black;
      else if(Application.Current.RequestedTheme == ApplicationTheme.Dark
          statusBar.ForegroundColor = Windows.UI.Colors.White;
  }
}

Template10 already has a lot of the logic built in just have to know where it is. As @Jay Zuo said you have to also include the Mobile reference as well..
