Somehow one day while solving my Mirror Cube (as i normally do with the same method i use for the regular 3x3) I ended up with 1 top corner that will not orientate correctly. I have been looking for solutions online and have yet to find any solutions for 1 corner. I did find an april fools video about the exact problem i was having except it was with a normal 3x3. I have also tried an online cube solver, however the result is consistently "invalid scramble."

I have not taken the mirror cube apart, changed stickers, or altered it in any way.

Does anyone know of a solution? I have tried re-scrambling the cube several times and still end up with 1 corner askew.
you take it apart and put it back together solved

I'm guessing you accidentally flipped a corner at some point while doing moves. This happens a lot on looser cubes but it's also possible on tighter ones. No sequence of moves will twist one corner, so you can only fix this by manually twisting one back or by taking the cube apart (start by twisting the top face by 45 degrees and prying an edge upward).

Hmm. Do Spanish speaking cubers really outnumber English speaking cubers?

is there a proper video on youtube on how to mod a zhanchi 55mm ? My 55mm zhanchi dissapoints me, it was so cra.. bad. I have to turn very accurately, otherwise it catches and locks up. It is loud as well, the plastic seems kinda weird, idk, its my first zhanchi, but compared to my other friend's .. this is the worst zhanchi i have ever used :( i really want to make it real good

The corner cutting on zhanchis is actually inferior to the corner cutting we have on more modern cubes. It's kind of expected that zhanchis will lock up if you're really used to the newer cubes.

The first speedcube i tried was a guhong v2, then a zhanchi
but that zhanchi was modded pretty well, pieces were frosted, and 48 point mod and couple more .. (i think) and that felt amazing man

I think Spanish

Yes. I'm Spanish and I can confirm that. And I don't think Spanish-speaking cubers outnumber English-speaking ones. I just think theMaoiSha makes very funny and entertaining videos. I love his pet "Cubo-pez" (Fish-cube). But to be honest this has come as a surprise to me. I didn't think he had so many subscribers.
