Hide title of navigation bar without removing it

iphone

Solution

Based on the suggestion of pheekicks, I found a tip to do it:

UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] init];
self.navigationItem.titleView = label;

Problem

I have a customized navigation bar with a image background. I do want to show the title on the background but I need its text for the back button in the next view. `self.title=@""` will not put (naturally) in the back button the previous title.
