How to Solve a Rubik's Cube - Part 5 - Complete Top Face

[Z0mbieSlayer97]

fuck sack how the hell am i getting 8 yellows on the top all the time anyone???

[thehyphenator]

haha that cube is about as beat up as mine. may have to replace the stickers soon.

[Awaksica]

i have 3 corners yellow!!! i try n times, but always have 3 corners yellow?? help me

[EpicxK1TTyKat]

i had all the corners when i did it

[haloelite205]

Thank you!!!!!!!

[eyeballs97]

What is the best way to memorize than algorithms?

[michellecooljr]

look at the worn piece in the background on 1:32



[stak45DDS]

1:29

[natecoaster]

ive got al of the yelow done so I can skip this step right?

[Jessica1997210]

AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! i shouldve wait until you demonstrate the 2 corner pieces or at least read the comment TTTTTT______TTTTTT i wasted my time figuring out how to make it back to one corner piece and do the same step like u. but i'm still glad i made it this far though.

[for818]

rofl its funy how my rubix cub was exactly the same as his from step 4 to 6 =D

[mrnerfsalot]

thanks that really helped me your vids are the best



[k8ekittii]

I CAN'T BELIEVE I'VE MADE IT THIS FAR ! YOU ARE A PERFECT TEACHER ! THANK YOU !! :DD

[usta4070]

This 5th video is by far the best of this great series. No unneeded info and handles each situation perfectly. Well done.

[gamerjbean]

Thank you thank you thank you you have been a big help thank you!!!!!!

[joal1991]

pfff nvm i should have watched the whole video before start doing it on my own...

THIS WAS A GREAT GUIDE ON THE 3x3

good job and thnx for the upload!!!

:D

[joal1991]

I had 2 corners ready and when i did this move you showed i just lost both of them and went to a clear cross... :O

is that normal?!?!?!

[XxX0cracker0XxX]

i have two sides with adjencent same colours idk which one should i put back??

[MominImran47]

great explainaition....thanks

[MrDriftKing491]

Easy i mean*

[MrDriftKing491]

This waz wasy idk wat u guys talkin bout

[Tatertot903]

every time the algorithm again, i would lose the other corrners i had already

[2828moises]

Duded I was just doing it over and over again cuuz it was messed up and I didn't even have to do the othere steps with this step r t ri r t180 ri I finish

[VivaPinata0407]

I did this step and it messed it up....

[almost7813]

You guys/gals know the Rubik's cube comes with a 7 step guide right? Its a lot easier. Just sayin.

[H3vYD123]

I really appreciate these tutorials

[firerunner1]

for some reason when i do the algorithm, i go back from the 3+3+1 yellow, to the yellow cross..

you happen to know what i'm doing wrong ?

[mirjam15100]

Excellent tutorial but part 4 and 5 made me screw up the cube totally so I had to restart like a million times. Mostly because it seems that you keep turning the cube while turning so it just gets to be confusing XD But like I said excellent tutorial

[MeMadeTheSkyFall]

I did the algerythm with one finished corner piece and I positioned it as shown, but when I finished the algerythm I ended up with NO finished corner pieces. O_O

Please help!

[TonyMahonY87]

u said 3 yellow on top is not a possibility, but exactly this happened to me...

[benzbowii94]

thumbs up if you think the way this guy does the yellow face the longggggg way.

[IISATURNIP]

@benzbowii94 It's faster once you get to speed cubing

[Mr135GUY]

i had the cross, with a yellow piece where it needed to be.... did the algerythm.... it completely screwed everything up.....

[Mr135GUY]

@Mr135GUY then, once i do it again, the way he shows..... it once again fucks up my cube.... im following these directions the exact way he is showing, and its not working..... fuck this....

[mhaikal99]

woops!i didnt complete the top face i complete the bottom white and the red at the side not the top O.o

[victoriap0705]

instead of adding on, mine takes a corner away every time i do it... it that supposed to happen?

[jamesythegreat]

Dude, truly thanks! I've been trying to solve this Rubix Cube since forever...and I'm talking more than about 25 yrs. Today I solved it but I more than solved it...I now have somewhat of an understanding of how the cube works and now have a better strategy going forward. I'll scramble it again once I get over my joy of finally having it solved. No more monkey on my back...Wooo HOO!!! Keep the videos coming buddy and once again..bottom of heart...THANKS!!

[GuyFromRunescape]

Hey dude, when you are assigning the sides. My opposite side with the adjacent corners has also two yellows. Does this matter?

[Walen97]

I had 2 corners left did the move and then one got away did it again and one more got away so now i only got the cross .....

[123Z3KAI321]

thumbs up if you couldnt get past part 2 and just skipped to the last

[MichaelTRJones]

@RobH0629 In the beginning you say that 3 yellow corners is not a possibility but guess what. It is. I just did every single thing you said and nothing more and I have 3 yellow corners.

Thanks for this tutorial. It's great. Helped a lot!

One piece of advice. In the second or third part there's a moment where you do a move and then turn it back - explain - and then do it again. You do that a few times. That's the only confusing part.

[unstopabledragon1]

He makes it sound like were stupid lol\

[honkey2121]

Yay :) all completed - thanks

[Shvensk]

Awesome, I also solved it in this step! Go luck!

[doingurmom111]

YES I MADE IT THIS FAR oh crap back to step 1 :D

[JemboyMedia]

thumbs up if u trained part 1-3 to enter 4-5,

[sniperhero88]

and... back to step 1

[aben4201]

i did the first step and it did'nt work it looked the same do you just do it again?

[BaldingEagle51]

Super clear and the best tutorial on YT for this part. +1!

[R66212]

I finished the cube at this step! Haah

[aben4201]

@R66212 same lolz



[coolster01]

After 7 months of CUBING I know all OLL and PLL and I use fridrich and I average 21-22 seconds. Thx for getting me started

[jadeniz]

No it only does that rarely I'm a Rubik's expert I would no my record is 1 04 seconds

[coltsfan1235]

Mine just solved at end of this step, does this always happen?

[aben4201]

@coltsfan1235 no

[twilightdawlrocks]

Your videos are so awesome. All those people who are complaining that your videos are long and boring should just shush their mouth be more appreciative. without these videos, my Rubix Cube would probably still be sitting on my desk unsolved and ignored.

[KurtisKerr6]

with that one corner piece, i looks like a fish and thats what i always call it. 

[amadeo100]

dude u diserve a nobel price

[gaillejiannbering]

Yes! i got three

[neerja93]

Can you show a view of the paper with the diagrams in the background and hold the camera on the whole sheet for like 10 seconds?  I just need to see how to position my cube.

[RobH0629]

@neerja93 Check out these timestamps-- For 0 corner pieces: 1:00, For 1 corner piece next to cross: 2:00, for 2 corner pieces next to the cross 3:05. Also, be sure to see the video description for more information on positioning the cube.

[neerja93]

@RobH0629 Alright, thanks! You're video series was EXTREMELY helpful. I went through it last night and now I can solve a cube within a few minutes. Thanks so much for making this!!!!

[Maccabossman]

@neerja93 Or you could pause the vid???

[mordino1]

Hi. I have been solving the cube for about 1 year now thanks to your videos. I have a question. Do you have some more algorithms for step 5 yellow layer? I mean shortcuts instead of the repeating of the same move??

[kevinmost93]

"I'm using my OLD cube"

... Yes you are. That shit is beat up like crazy XD

[nerfnerdsmn]

I solved the yellow layer and the four corners by doing what u said

[gur0004]

you havent gone thru all the possibilities sorry. I M stuck

[thesixofspade]

at 0:41 the P in corner pieces looks like a question mark.

[jackthelad101]

i hate the way the stickers fall off

[helgathedog1]

0:33, i got 4 yellows from step 4, just wanted to say that! :D

[LurkenTheBurken]

at 3:50 why does your cube look so wierd? not the hole piece is coloured? :)

[MrEtick12]

...... My white fuked up on this step :(

[daniel193100]

I completely solved the cube on this step!!!

[Tristeracles]

i just did the algorithm ( i had 1 extra yellow) and now i have one yellow missing what do i do?

[Tristeracles]

@Tristeracles whenever i go back using the back algorithm i get to no extras (from having 3 extras) and then i go back to your first step and i do the algorithm in the correct position - and i go back to three extras

[glaidska]

damn you're good:)

[JhosefL]

get a new rubic cube dude

[juntube123]

so do u just do the algorithm again and again until u get all yellow? cool

[syngervice67]

definetly adding all your rubiks tutorial to my favorties

[Z0mbcc3r]

i just wanted to say to you that overall this is the best rubik's cube tutorial i have ever come across!!! :) and keep it up with writing down the other ways of how the cube might look, helped me alot!

[T34mPlayer]

so, after i complete the top face, will all the middle pieces be in the correct place? 

[DahBigBadWolf]

Oh shit, got it :)... this part may be a bit hard for me to remember tho

[123swimchamp]

are you from new jersy?

[Nooffence1000]

After 2 years of trying to find a good teacher to teach me and a few broken cubes you teached me how to solve it your an amazing teacher rob :)

[uhavemooface]

I just finished my rubix cube on this step. I guess that happens.

[MultiDeath4u]

@uhavemooface yea lol another guy finished it on step 3 lol

[Swingarwolf1]

@uhavemooface yeah its possible :D its even possible to finish it after the step before this one :D weird how that works however it almost NEVER happens :D pretty entertaining when it does though but the chances of it happening again are very slim good luck :D

[adrianv2]

Dude clean up!!

[lilsunboy]

first of all i can finish the rubix cube very quickly now so thanks (:

but right now i just finished my entire cube with by doing this step LOL

[GamingHolic]

All messed up

[1120A21]

i keep doing the algorithm but it never get all yellows on top. plz help

[mymusicproduction1]

how do i fix it when some of the middle squares are not in the correct place.

[azatrum1]

Brother all the steps are very easy when following your tutorial but i have difficulty in this 5th step. Could this be a bit easier?

U ve made it pretty simple but can you make it more simpler??

[azatrum1]

@azatrum1 i paid more attention and i got it thanks....

[weedsful]

What do I do if i have 4 complete corners? Seriously, I'm not joking.

[ProgrammingRules]

@weedsful Sometimes when you are solving the cube a part or a few parts get skipped

[amy1910]

Thankyou :D

[99PS3boy]

i done the cube with this step thank yu ever so much ill sub and like BTW ive slved the cube 5or6 times with this method and ur tut is the best tutorial !!!!!!!!!!!

[cpoma1999]

i got completely stuck i tried like 100 times

[wowzyxxwow]

HAHAHA. I did the algorithm once, And BOOM the whole Yellow was done. Thanks for the steps along the way. Subscribed :)

[jovz656]

dude buy new rubik's cube... ^^ btw tnx for the tips

[keeppgoin]

i finished it on this step :)

[TRUxGam3r]

Oh, guess i shouldhave watched the video first

[TRUxGam3r]

3 isnt possible? IM STUCK WITH A FULL YELLOW SIDE. Only problem is the next row isnt solved... Oh, guess i shouldhave watched the video first

[TRUxGam3r]

3 isnt possible? IM STUCK WITH A FULL YELLOW SIDE. Only problem is the next row isnt solved

[ColdestLivewire]

WTF I had to do this 7 times

[aisha72875]

u're a great teacher, u should run a cubic school. :)

[Maccain521]

Um... if you can't have 3 additional corners how come I have 4 ?



[Aznsouldah]

hahaha nice diagrams :3

[coolster01]

Wow I can solve it in 1:14 without this! Thnx! (not 1 hour 14 minutes, 1 minute, 14 seconds.) Well, that was with fridrich method. I got 1:15 with beginners.

[AyeeValdezz21]

helped out ALOT.!!(:

[SomersetBar]

Awesome! You deserve some less worn cubes my friend!!

Had this stupid cube since the mid 70's and it's the first time I solved it without taking it apart!! :) CHEERS!

[submerzed18]

thanx a lot buddy!!!!!!!!!!!!!just beacause of you,i am able to complete this RUBIKS CUBE!!!!!!!!thanx a lot..........and you are a great teacher[:)]

[Clossjordan]

i got to this part but my yellow was solved :X

[UndeadGhost4Eva]

how about taking off the stickers and putting them in order

[comedypain]

@UndeadGhost4Eva Then u have no soul

[Arrygoo]

it'd be awesome if you provided links to the scanned version of the prints you have there ..

[PeachTube1968]

Thank you I have never been able to do this & now I can nearly do it without the instructions. This is by far the BEST tutorial on Youtube! Thanks :)

[BLUEDRESS7]

hello...i just want to echo what others are saying and that is that this is the best set of videos to solve this cube. it's so frustrating without you! i've looked at all others and i'm glad that i came across yours. my 9yr old daughter and i are constantly looking you up to solve this over and over again. thanks!!

[travianer14]

buy new stickers set! :D

[npfp123]

dude i just want to let u know u are the sole reason i completed this cube no other tut was as awesome as yours

[pizzaman3088]

Thanks Rob! You r awesome =)

[MrWalerzak1987]

ignore that last comment ive done it lol THANKS your great teacher ;)

[MrWalerzak1987]

a yellow cross i have 4 yellow in a square in corner on top..... not a cross

[IHRIBlackAce]

I got 3 yellow corner pieces.....0_o? lol j/k nice vid bro!

[TFCxAddict]

Dude this is awesome! Your the best teacher EVER!!!!!

[Moepiiiii]

thanks :) better understood than a german tutorial, although i'm german xD

[giathecat]

i finnaly understood this! then I couldnt find my rubiks cube :(

[COOKID1000]

ok so i tryed solving the cube again and i did this move and i figured out the cube its weierd

[dmr778810]

u tampered with it the other video had a yellow corner on the top this one doesnt

[SuperGeorg32]

in my case when im starting i have one missing

[jelcroo1]

i solved it on a ipod app XD im getting som cubes tomorrow (2x2 3x3 4x4) ad complete them ^^

[drumskateorbreakit]

hey can you help me i can't see the 6 step for some reason. can you post the algorithem in a comment or something?

[gamwtnpaoktngamiolh]

nc house .........

[JoshJenkins]

I have one yellow corner and a yellow sticker is in the top layer but on the right face instead of the front, how do I solve this?

[qfsean1234]

YAYYY!!!!! THANKS MAN I HAVE NEVER SOLVED 1 BEFORE I DID NOW! YAYYYY!

[kylkiller44]

hey..... no matter how many time i do it ... it never gets the full yellow!! i can only get where i have 2 left on the yellow side... hellllpppp plsss.. im almost there!!!!!1

[matthewandleigh123]

wow somehow, it works

[sonicgak2]

what if mines is on top right with 2 yellow corner peices?

[mlines99]

i all ready had the hole top yellow completed

[MorpheusOdyssoes]

Oke got it right, thanks

[coggyfloo642]

wow thx with your help i can now do the first 4 steps without help you rock!!! :)

[BmoresCorey]

I was just driving back from massachusetts and in the 8 hours i learned one thing: how to solve a rubix cube! thanks! :D

[gnarly1996]

i cant get this it just keeps going to random spots on the yellow face. i have to just keep on repeating the algorithm and it eventually solves itself but its so annoying. please help if you understand what i am talking about

[catbatfat123]

@gnarly1996 I just have to tell u one thing that he is not going to reply to u or help u.

[coolster01]

Make a video about how fast you can solve this!

[SuperCesar67]

@coolster01 he did

[coolster01]

Awesome video but why is your old cube so ripped up? Watch coolster01's videos and have fun!

[5meman]

Wow! You are really helpful. I stumbled across video 1 and was hooked on that video ! This is My comment. Then I am going to rate 5 stars and subscribe.

[lilcrazyaznboy]

Since I just finally solved the cube for the first time yesterday.. I am understanding it so much better while I'm re-watching his steps.. I can't find a better video that explains everything perfect as he did..

[TeHCamill]

did the algorithm incorrectly and fucked everything up :/

[ChelsieHx]

then i did it again VVVV and it just gave me one cross again... WHATS GOING ONNNNNNNNNNN

[ChelsieHx]

i had this>> + with no additional yellows, then i did the algorithom ONCE, and got 2 additional peices!! ;O

[ChelsieHx]

i love you old cube...

[SuperNickFilms]

15 seconds ago

DONT READ THIS CUZ IT ACCUALLY WORKS.YOU WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY FROM THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE.TOMARROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE. HOWEVER IF YOU DONT POST THIS TO OVER 3 VIDEOS YOU WILL DIE WITHIN 2 DAYS NOW THAT YOU STARTED READING THIS DONT STOP.THIS IS SO SCARY! POST THIS TO FIVE OTHER VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES.WHEN UR DONE PRESS F6 AND YOU CRUSHES NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS.THIS IS SO SCARY BUT IT REALLY WORKS

[TheWowmaster98]

Somehow i finished it this step too! How?

[epicsamp95]

when i did step 4, i automatically got the top face finished haha?

[supermonkeyballboy]

Tell me, please, is R T Ri T R T180 Ri the same as R U Ri U R 2U Ri? I'm just wondering.

[xxoxia]

@supermonkeyballboy - Yes, that's the same. It's called the Sune alogorithm. He just uses T instead of U to make it easier for beginners.

[pepelou21]

i did the cube just on that step thanx

[carnagesuit]

i solved it by this step. So uh how did that happen?

[yurboiisilly]

i was taught how to solve it in about 2minutes just peel all the stickers off

[firando1]

Can you stop repeating clock wise , it gives me the headaches

[davidskonto2]

thats 3-look OLL right? btw whats ur best time and which method do u use? fridrich or petrus?

[alienforcer6]

dude after i did this everything was solved!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!

[coley2319]

You have a phenomenal teaching ability! Thank you so much for sharing and explaining so completely and cohesively. It was a wonderful demonstration.

[alienforcer6]

YOUR AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

[R1BC4G3]

This step fucks up my cube T_T

[MrTONYINATOR]

dude you should be a teacher

[MystcalDJ]

woe



[Moheet24]

3:17 sounds like Adam Sandler! Funny.

You have made the most beginner friendly cube videos on youtube. very thorough and overall very helpful! Thank you!

[mabsousa]

"you will never have a girl" That's the fucking classic argument of brainless people who isn't able to admit someone's skill, that makes them feel exactly what they are: pieces of shit!

[pumear100]

dude your a genius and a great teacher

[RobH0629]

@pumear100 Hah, thank you very much.. I take it you were able to solve it? :-)
