i tried the flashable dailer zip from xda forum, but none of them work. i even tried the old methods of modifying the .png images from the contacts.apk and dailer.apk zip and even that didnt work out.

Ex dialer seems to be a popular choice. I really don't use third party apps for that

 

If I don't like a particular dialer I use white one -the one that's in latest maucat, for instance- that seems to play nice with almost any rom. But white themed apks being annoying battery hogs, it won't make much sense to post a flashable zip on this particular thread

 

Contacts apks are not that compatible. Even from an aosp-like rom to another, you may get a force close. Some do work if you've already sync with your google account

you have to open the apk with 7zip,find the images you want to replace and replace them with the ones you want after you give them the same name with the ones you changed.Its pretty easy,i ve done it many times on my previous android.

This works if the background that you want to change is an image and it is not drawn in realtime by the system.If this is the case then you have to dig deeper and have some knowledge.

You could also search for some xposed module that lets you customize app's colors,there are a few out there.

If you dont mind changing the default dialer you can also try exdialer,its way better than any default dialer
