Q: Switching to a different Apple ID/account on iPhone

I recently got my own laptop and apple ID, and would like to switch the apple ID/account on my iPhone from my family's ID/account to my new one. Is there a way to do this?

iPhone 4S, iOS 7.1.1

    CHANGING APPLE ID/EDIT ACCOUNT INFORMATION/CHANGE ITUNES COUNTRY

    Tap Settings / iTunes & App Stores, then tap the Apple ID signed in. Sign out of the current Apple ID account and then sign in with another account or create a new Apple ID http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2731?viewlocale=en_US

    Go to settings/facetime and tap the ID there and log out and log in with new ID.

    Go to settings/messages and turn off imessages wait 30 seconds and turn it back on, go to “receive messages  at” tap on the ID there, sign out and sign in with new ID.

    Go to settings/icloud and delete the account and when prompted select “keep information on your device” then turn it back on with the new ID.
