Hi guys I wanted to know if someone could help me. I have 3x3x3 Rubik's cube, I've been able to do it for a while but now I have a new problem, When I end up with the two corners to finish it, Theres always one who's not placed in the right side, like everyting's good except this one, It's pretty new for me, Please help :3

Thanks xox

Nobody knows what this means. What do you mean by "end up with the two corners to finish it," and what do you mean by "who's not placed in the right side"?
 
Solve it with disassembling and the assemble it again and it should not appear again. The problem is that when you assemble the cube wrong it is unsolvable.

Actually, imagin that you have always one corner who's not placed correctly but the cube is complete... except this one, and it does it with the other corners too
 
It seems that a corner just twisted. Either you can just twist it back in place or you might have to pop some pieces out and put it back together correctly. I can't imagine if the corner did this without being disassembled that it couldn't just be twisted back easily.
 
And mine'S a Rubik's cube so I dont even know if I can twist those corners

It's a bit hard to explain, but yes, it sounds like one corner is twisted. If you or anyone else has ever taken it apart, then that's probably why. What you'll have to do is take it apart, and put it back together correctly. without pictures then i can't tell you for sure, but I'd bet that's what happened.
 
Even If it always happen? like one time its the yellow, orange and green and the other time its another time :3

Yes, when you have one corner twisted, one will always be twisted, but it doesn't matter which one. Think of it this way: on a solved cube, each corner can be twisted in 3 possible ways, one solved, one clockwise, and one counterclockwise. Take a solved cube and twist all or most of the corners. Set each solved corner equal to 0, each clockwise one equal to 1, and each counterclockwise one equal to 2. Then add up all the values of all eight corners on the cube. If your cube is solvable, the amount of twisted corners will always be a multiple of 3. If it's unsolvable, no matter what you do to it afterwards, it will always have the same remainder after dividing by 3. So once you find out if it's solvable or unsolvable, try to solve it. You can always reduce a corner-twisted cube down to one unsolved corner, but it can be any of the eight corners. Once you get to this point, if it's unsolved with one corner twisted, check if it's clockwise or counterclockwise. The corresponding number to whatever it is will be your remainder that you got from earlier.

If you'd rather picture it in another way, twist one corner clockwise, then with that corner in the up-front-right position, do the algorithm: R' D' R D R' D' R D U D' R' D R D' R' D R U'
You'll end up with another corner twisted in the same direction.

I found that my brother twisted a corner... thanks tho :p

Yeah my brother twisted the corner -,- lol just discovered that it can be twisted lol thanks xox
