Take out the piece and flip it.

Ok. R'UF' to restore. Then... do PandaCuber's suggestion.

It doesn't mess up anything but the edge that you flipped.

Assuming the piece you need to flip is facing you. F R' D' R F2.... Also I would recommend you get used to making the cross on the bottom... when you feel comfortable

Correction... even though this will flip the piece it still may not be in the right place. Since the other part of it is yellow it will be in the wrong spot since it is on the white face.... The edges have to match the centers. So even if you have a cross it can still be wrong. I'll post some images showing this.



Correct Edges

Incorrect Edges



Notice the difference. On the correct edges not only is the x made, but the red and blue are matching. On the incorrect x, the red and blue are switched.

But that messes up the rest of the cube!!!

I don't understand? That OLL is an illegal case.

Are the other two layers solved? If they are, it's possible that somebody took your cube apart and put it together in a way that makes it unsolvable. Just take the cube apart and put it back solved.

Or just flip the yellow/blue edge. I think that the corner in the back right should have blue on top, so fix that too.

It's not an OLL. And yeah, I don't really understand xMarshyy either. It first sounded like all he wanted to do was make a blue cross (but I wasn't sure if the cross pieces are actually lined up correctly anyway) but at the same time he didn't like any part of the rest of the cube messed up.

flip the blue edge then do anti-sune

:fp My bad you are right.... I thought this was the first cross...

I was being a bit sarcastic. The first post talked about cross so I thought it meant the first cross too as nobody says "cross" really except to mean the first step of CFOP. But after my FU'R suggestion, xMarshyy complained that it messed up the rest of the cube which led me to suggest the edge flip, originally PandaCuber's idea (jokingly actually). Maybe I'm completely off, but xMarshyy sounds like a real beginner. I don't think he is referring to a LL cross or anything to do with OLL with flipped edges or anyone having messed with his cube. It just sounded like he wanted to make a cross without affecting some other parts of the cube... who knows what he really wanted. If he was trying to make the first cross, duh that the other pieces move...

Solution: Flip edge.

If first two layers are done flip the edge
