One corner piece orientation problem - Rubik's Cube












-4












$begingroup$


enter image description here!



I have been trying to solve Rubik's cube using beginner's method provided here: https://ruwix.com/the-rubiks-cube/how-to-solve-the-rubiks-cube-beginners-method/



I ended up with just one last corner which is not oriented properly as shown in the picture. I cannot seem to solve it using R’ D’ R D algorithm, it messes up the whole square when the corner piece gets oriented. Every time I try to solve the cube, it again has just one last corner disoriented. None of the algorithms mention one last corner case. They always talk about 2 or more corners disoriented. I don't understand. Can someone explain what's happening and how to solve it?

    Weather Vane is indeed right, there can never be a single piece incorrect on a regular 3x3x3 Cube. You must have accidentally twist it in one of your solves. Simply twist it back, and then you should be able to scramble/solve it normally again. If it happens again later, maybe your cube is a bit too loose causing this to happen in the heat of a solve. In that case try tightening the screws a tiny bit to reduce this from happening again.

Unless the piece at the opposite corner has a similar misorientation, the cube has been tampered with.



There can never be a single piece wrong. A set of moves to twist one piece, always has a corresponding side-effect.

Han vart Ridder av 1. klasse av St. Olavs Orden i 2003, og er som ivrig friluftsmann æresmedlem i Den Norske Turistforening etter å ha ytt store økonomiske bidrag til foreininga sine hytter og ruter i fjellet. Han er kjend for alltid å gå med ei karakteristisk strikkelue.

Opninga inn mot nedre nasegang er delvis tildekt av ei ufullstendig slimhinnefold kalla Hasners ventil. Overflødige tårer strøymer gjennom tårekanalen og trekker inn i nedre nasegang. Dette er grunnen til at ein kan få rennande nase når ein gret, og at ein somme gonger kan kjenne saltsmaken av tårer i munnen. Både tårekanalen og tåresekken er tekt med fleirlaga sylinderepitel som inneheld slimproduserande begerceller, og er begge omgjevne av bindevev. Dakryostenose (tårekanalstenose) er ei innsnevring av tårekanalen som fører til epifora, ei overflod av tårer. Medfødd dakryostenose kan føra til cystisk utviding av tårekanalen ved at det dannast ein dakryocystocele. Personar m...
