The edge piece will now be solved, and you can work on the next edge piece. Before After Step 2 Solve the Green Corners HINT: Find a corner piece in the bottom layer that belongs on top. Turn the bottom layer until that piece is directly below its home in the top layer. Hold the cube with the piece at the lower-front-right and its home at the upper-front-right, as in the picture, and then do the sequence Ri · Di · R · D, 1, 3, or 5 times until that corner is solved. If you find a corner piece that's already in the top layer but it's in the wrong spot or flipped the wrong way, just hold the cube with that piece in the upper front right position, and do Ri · Di · R · D once. Now the piece is in the bottom layer, and you can solve it as described above.

After the move, the piece is in the top layer, and you can solve it as described above. Repeat this for the other 3 middle-layer edges.

As such, you may have to repeat the same step a few times with different sides as the starting face until all the pieces are solved. [. . . ]
