Custom UITableViewCell selection style?

When I click on my UITableViewCell, the background part (the areas that my background image doesn't cover) turns blue when I click on the cell. Also, all of the UILabels on the cell turn to white when it is clicked which is what I want.

However what I do not want is the blue background when I click it but if I do selectionstylenone, then I lose the highlighted colours for the UILabels in the cell.

So is there any way to just get rid of the blue background when the cell is clicked but to keep the highlighted colors of the UILabels?

You can use the following delegate methods after you set the selection style to none:

-(NSIndexPath *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

Implement your code here, like this

-(NSIndexPath *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    CustomCell *cell = (CustomCell *)[tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
    [cell.lbls setTextColor:[UIColor whiteColor]];
    return indexPath;
}
