steps: ++++++ with algo 1+2 any one colour (face) with 1 layer each of adjoining four planes _|_ with algo 3+4 upto two layer on all 4 planes (with one layer solved already in above step) after following above two steps, there can be following 4 different positions (see 2nd video @1:25) just a middle, l shape, a line, a cross (goal is to set the cross) when have the reverse l (1:50) use algo 5 - we will get a line repeat the same algo 5 to get the cross (2:12) after acheiving this cross, follow algo 6 to line up all the adjoing plane's upper centre (2:22) to position the piece whose orientation are directly opposite, follow algo 6 (2:52), and then (3:10) after getting this cross, (3:22) goal is to align all corner pieces, follow algo 7 orienting the corners in correct way [final step] follow algo 2 (4:25) -list of algorithms++++++++++++++++++++ 1) fi u li ui basic algo when center lower piece is in reverse position (see 1st video @4:15) 2) ri di r d basic algo - when repeated six times will not change any position. also useful to get a particular corner at correct position and orientation. (see 1st video @4:50) 3) u r ui ri ui fi u f same as algo 4 (right version) with this algo, we can move the up center piece at middle right position (in right plane) (see 2nd video @0:58) 4) ui li u l u f ui fi
same as algo 3 (left version) with this algo, we can move the up center piece at middle left position (in left plane) (see 2nd video, 0:30) 5) f r u ri ui fi
(l shape -> line -> (repeat) -> cross)
6) r u ri u r u u ri when done upper cross but with only two out of 4 edges are in correct place when two edges are directly lined up two oppposite 7) u r ui li u ri ui l when upper cross done completely, and thus have to align the upper corners (but not in correct orientation) should be require to repeat max twice, never greater than that
