4x4 Rubik's Cube Parity Tutorial

This is the last part of solving the 4x4 rubik's cube. There really isn't an easy way to do it besides these algorithms.

Parity A-
2r, 2U, 2r, 2U*, 2r, 2u

Parity B-
2R*, 2B, 2U, L*, 2U, R'*, 2U, R*, 2U, 2F, R*, 2F, L'*, 2B, 2R*

Parity C-
PA, y' ,R, U, R', U', R' F, 2R, U', R', U', R, U, R', F'

Parity D-
PA, y, R, U', R', U, 3x3 l, U, F, U', R', F', R, U', R, U, 3x3 l', U, R'

Parity E-
PA, y', 2F, U', L, R', 2F, L', R, U' 2F

Also I forgot to say that "y" means turn the whole cube clockwise and "y' " means turn the whole cube counterclockwise.

[catboy809]

but i dont want to cheat

[willdabeast6]

its not cheating its fixing. once its fixed youll never have to cheat

[catboy809]

hello so my question is that i hav a cube that has the same as parity c but its switched so the yellow is on the left side and i tried ur alg but it wont work

[willdabeast6]

well it should work if its two corners that are next to each other and you hold them in front

[catboy809]

oh i forgot to add that i cant finish the yellow face and i dont no y, its not a parity but also not in any oll because i hav one corner left and i cant flip it up

[willdabeast6]

if you're sure you have only ONE corner rotated, your cube is messed up somehow. just take it out and put it back in correctly and it should be ok

[SSSSSSPla13]

you talk really slow you know that ?

but its a good vid =D

[LordGoatMan]

This was vary help full thanks a lot, but how did u find these algorithoms?

[steel5w]

huh, you must solve the cube differently, I only get 2 possible parity situations...

[AkoSiJuan90]

tnx.. A and C are very useful

@skate4skate182 shengshou :D

THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO!!!! :)

[JLConawayII]

So y means to chuck the cube at the wall, and y' means to get the superglue. Got it.

@cuberslashskater ok thanks for the tip.

@crazybadcuber It doesn't really matter what case u have if u know all your PLL's. U can just use: Uu2,Rr2,U2,r2,U2,Rr2,Uu2 or Parity A here. And in your case ill assume your talking about 2 diagonally switched corners. After u perform one of the above algs u should have an N-Perm 2 do. Now lets say your 2 switched corner were beside each other in the UF positions. Perform one of the above algs, then u should have T-Perm 2 do. The rule of thumb is 2 do the parity alg first then 1 look PLL.

@cuberslashskater lol I'm not a beginner even though my youtube name might say different haha. I know all my PLL's. I was just asking about this certain parity case. Everything is fixed accept 2 corners in opposite corners need to be switched. doesn't happen often, I was just asking if there was one alg that could solve this. Thanks though =)

[cuberslashskater]

@crazybadcuber Knowing 2 look PLL would really help, 1 look would be awesome 4 parity but u probably don't know that yet. Check out my "4x4 Parity tutorial made simple" video response 2 this video. In it I explain it how 2 fix it first 4 a beginner (2 looks or Badmephisto's method taught ) and then 4 some1 who knows both 1 look OLL and PLL.
