Solve - Complete White face

Prerequisite: 

• A Rubik's cube with white cross on the white face.

Outcome:

• A Rubik's cube with white face completed.

We need to bring the white corner pieces to white face to solve the complete white face.

Steps to be followed to solve "Complete White face"

• Hold the cube such that the white face should be the bottom face.
• Now look for the white corner pieces on the top layer that has white colour on one of its side faces.
• Select that white corner piece from the top layer that has white colour on its side face. 
• Rotate the top layer such that the other side colour of the selected white corner piece matches with any of the side faces of the Rubik's cube.
• Now hold the cube such that the white face is the bottom face and the selected white corner piece has white colour facing either right or left.
• Use the below algorithm to bring the selected white corner piece to the bottom white face.

If white colour of selected white corner piece facing right : R, T, Ri

If white colour of selected white corner piece facing left : Li, Ti, L

• Repeat the above steps for all the white corner pieces to bring them to white face.
• Now the complete white face should have been solved.

NOTE: In the above process, we have assumed that we have a white corner piece on top layer with white colour facing either right or left. If we do not find such white corner piece on the top layer, we need to bring the white corner pieces to the top layer. Then follow the above steps to fix white corner pieces. There are two cases if we do not have white corner piece on top layer with white colour facing either right or left as discussed below.

Case1: White corner piece available on top layer but white colour facing top.

If white corner piece on right side : R, T180, Ri

If white corner piece on left side : Li, Ti180, L 

The above moves should bring the selected white corner piece to top layer with white colour facing either right or left faces (instead of top face). Then perform the steps mentioned above to fix the selected white corner piece.

Case2: White corner piece available on bottom layer with white colour facing either right or left.

If corner piece on right layer : R, T, Ri

If corner piece on left layer : Li, T, L 

The above moves should bring the selected white corner piece to top layer (instead of bottom layer) with white colour facing either right or left face. Then perform the steps mentioned above to fix the selected white corner piece.
