Able to Change Google Login ID & Account ?

Since these phones are Registered directly to Google Mail immediately upon activating,  is there a (easy) process to change that account if I Register a new Google Email Account ? e.g., After creating a new Google Email account, is it a simple process of removing my old account and lnking to the new one?  (I of course will Export/Import my Contacts into the new acct.)

Thanks in advance

The only way I know of is factory resetting the phone. Then you will sign into the phone using the new Gmail address instead of the older one.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

On most Android phones, you can link multiple gmail accounts however, to change the main account, a factory reset is needed.

AFAIK, that doesn't work for the main account.
