What challenged me to solve one myself: There are so many possible configurations (over 43 quintillions) that it would be impossible to solve it by randomly turning the faces until it’s all done.

# wrong color the on side
if middle white has the color on the side, you can use move 5 to ‘swap colors’, same as we do with the yellow
# 2. White corners on top
- First, turn the white cross on the bottomTo solve this, find the right corner pieces (a cube with white and the correct colors for right and left),Put that cube on top of where it belongs.
- If left use the move
U'L'ULIf it’s right do URU'R'Learned from in 10 Minutes (Beginner Tutorial) - YouTube.
# 3. Fix middle row
LEFT and RIGHT approach to pop the middle top wither to right or left - see images
Before you decide left or right, check the too color, e.https://www.ssp.sh/brain/Screenshot_20221119-212402~2.pngs https://www.ssp.shhttps://www.ssp.sh/brain/Screenshot_20221119-212404~2%201.png src="/brain/Screenshot_20221119-212402~2.png">
At the end of this step, your cube should have the middle layer solved and an intact white face at the bottom
# 4. Top yellow cross
We solve the yellow edges on the top of the Rubik’s Cube in two steps:
First, we orient them to form a yellow cross on the top, then we
When the yellow cross is done, fix the top middle cube.
# 6. Position Last Layer Corners
Or
# 7. Solve the Cube
All top yellow corners are in the right corner, but not necessarily oriented correctly
- Turn white face upChose a corner where it’s wrong. Repeat
RUR'U' until that one is solved (it will mess up a little bit the upper, but don’t worry)Once solved, turn them down to the next corner which is wrong. Repeat step 2. until that is solved as well. Repeat until all are solvedTurm down until all is correctLearned from Solve the Cube J Perm.
# Variant 2 - beginners guide
This are improvements I learned along the way, mostly from J Perm in 10 Minutes (Beginner Tutorial) - YouTube.
# Basis
RIGHT combination is RUR'U'
LEFT combination is L'U'LU
# 1. Try to solve the Tetris form including the White cross
Find the edge white and pair with the center color (middle bottom and center)
Turn them around 2F so the white is on top and the two front color match
If the colors are correct, but the white is against you (instead of top), do this: `FU’RU
# 2. White corners on top
- First, turn the white cross on the bottomTo solve this, find the right corner pieces (a cube with white and the correct colors for right and left),Put that cube on top of where it belongs.
- If left use the move
U'L'ULIf it’s right do URU'R'# 3. Fix middle row
# RIGHT
- Find correct edge color and put in top middleMove color away with
UDo the RIGHT combination (see above)Turn cube to the right (right face to the front)Apply left combinatation (see above)# LEFT
Same as above as other way around with turning the edge away to the right first (U')
Then LEFT combination, turn cube left and apply RIGHT combination
# 4. Top yellow cross
- Turn front with
F anddo the RIGHT combination andUndo front with F'When you have a L shape, make sure its on the top left and do it again
Then you should have a line, make sure that the line is horizontal, and do above algorith again which should leave a cross
# 5. Match Cross Colors
- Make sure the two solved side are to the right and back and the run this combination
RUR'UR2U'R'Run again when not solved.
# 6. Position Last Layer Corners
Check if all corner are correct or have the right colors in the right corner, if so you are done with this step.
- If not, hold the right corner (colors or all) and apply this combibation once or twice:
2.
URU'L'3.
UR'U'LNow all colors are done, or the whole cube.
# 7. Solve the Cube
All top yellow corners are in the right corner, but not necessarily oriented correctly
- Turn white face upChose a corner where it’s wrong. Repeat RIGHT combinarion until that one is solved (it will mess up a little bit the upper, but don’t worry)Once solved, turn them down to the next corner which is wrong.
