How do change my primary email address Google Search

When connected to Gmail on your smart phone, set up a secondary email address. This is an email address that Gmail can use when you have a problem with your primary Gmail address.

After setting up the secondary email address, try to connect to your primary Gmail address using your laptop.

After you receive a message that you are locked out, there will be an option for Gmail to send you an "unlock" link in an email to the secondary email address.

Access this email using your laptop and click the link. You will then be able to access your primary Gmail account using the laptop.

From gmail and your computer ? Or thru your phone? They are different procedures.

Hi Richard
following is a cut & past information from Google and I hope it helps in your quest.

Adding Gmail
If you add Gmail to your Google Account, your account's primary username will permanently change to yourusername@gmail.com.
After you add Gmail, the original email address associated with your account will become your alternate email address. If you have verified your original email address before adding Gmail, you will be able to sign in using this email address.

Adding Gmail to an existing Google Account

1. Go to mail.google.com.
2. Click Sign up for Gmail.
3. At the top of the page, click If you already have a Google Account, you can sign in here. You'll be redirected to a sign-in page.
4. Use your existing Google Account username and password to sign in. On the next page, you'll see a shortened Gmail sign-up form where you can choose your Gmail username

I hope this helps.

Change your username If you use Gmail with your Google Account, it's not currently possible to change your Gmail username after you've registered unless you want to delete Gmail from your account and use a different, non-Gmail address for your Google Account. You can also create another Google Account with a different Gmail username.
If you don't use Gmail with your Google Account, you can change your account username to another email address at any time. Your username is the full email address you used to create your account.
To change the email address on your account, just follow these steps:

1. Visit the Google Accounts homepage.
2. Sign in to your account.
3. Click Edit in the Email section.
4. Enter your new email address and your current password.
5. Click Save email address.

Once you've saved the change, you should receive a verification message at the email address you just entered. To complete the change, you'll need to click the verification link in this message. You should also receive a message at your old email address confirming that we've registered the change to your account. If you don't receive the verification email, check your spam folders or request a new email.
Note:

• You can't change the email address on your account to an existing Gmail address, but we invite you to add a new Gmail address to your Google Account.
• You can't change the email address on your account to an email address that's already associated with a Google Account.
• If you want to make your alternate email address the new primary address, you'll first need to delete your alternate email address from the account.
• The account username that you choose needs to be an active, valid email address that you can access.
