Shows how to switch two top layer edges in a 4x4 Rubik's Cube. This is basically the same as the last parity error I go over in the third step, however, the step 7 move in my 3x3 tutorial must be used as well. This is known as the Allan.

Algorithms Used:

To Switch two Opposite Top Layer Dedges:

r2 U2 r2 (Uu)2 r2 (Uu)2 U2


To rotate 3 Upper Dedges/Edges Counter-CW:
The Allan Move:

L2 U' B F' L2 B' F U' L2

  • ohh thanks... I got into the same situation...

    thanks a lot

    :)

  • Thanks

  • Thanks sooo much!!!

  • thanks for the help, I encountered that exact scenario!

  • what happens if the whole top layer is not complete, like the corners are right but the edges or not, bc if this happenes in a 3 by 3 by 3, i would perform the algorithm thats suppose to be used, and when i do that for this, it sometimes will give me no completed top layer

  • @karalis290 First you have to use moves for a 3x3x3 cube to solve top corners before you solve top layer edges.

  • but i dont get a completed side. thats my problem, by this step i only have the the middle pieces of the top layer. the corners are all weird. i cant even get two adjacent corners.
