Any subsection of 212, like 212 (a) for example?
If not, it just lists the many ways an alien can be deemed inadmissible.
INA: ACT 212 - GENERAL CLASSES OF ALIENS INELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE VISAS AND INELIGIBLE FOR ADMISSION; WAIVERS OF INADMISSIBILITY
C and B

Lawyers like to guarantee lots of things. Unfortunately there is no guarantee of receiving immigration benefits since those two top immigration lawyers you spoke to, don't work for USCIS.
Normally, yes, when one is denied citizenship they have no problem renewing their green card and continuing on their merry way as an Legal Permanent Resident.
When your basis for becoming an LPR may have been approved mistakenly, however, that road is a bit trickier.
That's not to say there is no path for you to continue to live/work legally in the US. If/when USCIS places you in removal proceedings ---- by the way, when you got your denial letter, did it mention anything about removal?---you will have an opportunity to present your case to an Immigration Judge, and your wife will have an opportunity to present her case of extreme hardship she would personally face if you were deported (they don't care about any hardships you would face, only those from the US citizen).
No mention of removal. They said because I didn’t demonstrate my lawful presence for 3/5 years which is one of the requirement to be legible for Naturalization.

Okay...so what are the misrepresentations they are claiming?
The I-485 back then required a G-325A, which requested all names you have ever used. I don't know the exact date you filed, but the G-325A has been required since before 2009 until only this year (where they integrated it into the I-485).

I applied in 2010 for I-485. The IO at my I-485 Interview was in great hurry I was the last one for the interview around 4:00pm my interview took about 15-18 minutes he particularly asked me for my arrests I gave him my disposition where it clearly said why he took my dispositions from me and hardly even looked at them. And after 7 years now they’re telling me that I did not demonstrate my lawful presence of 3/5 years which is one of the requirements to become citizen.
I swear I had no intentions to hide anything I provided my dispositions and told the truth on my N-400.
Im just burnt up.

Right, that's all they did right now. They could choose to pursue more after an investigation. Only time will tell if they decide to do so or not.
If there was a material misrepresentation involved in your green card application then the benefit can be revoked. It sounds like they believe you willfully made a material misrepresentation and the green card should not have been approved because you were not eligible for it. While your lawyer may not have asked about it, the I-485 asks about counterfeit documentation, ever concealing or misrepresenting information to immigration, and unlawful presence prior to exiting the US.
Anyway, yes...the advice not to pursue anything is the best option now. USCIS may decide to pursue revocation or not.
Sir my Petition was truthful. My I-485 Application back in 2009/2010 i
looked at it had no question where it ask if I’ve ever used a different name or anything plus at my I-485 I informed the IO regarding my fake European passport.
them again on the N-400 I told them the truth because it was I who filled this application.
the link to that I-485 Form is here

Attorneys cannot guarantee that you will have your GC renewed, because it should never have been issued in the first place. You committed a crime by entering the U.S. illegally with a fake passport. You committed fraud and material misrepresentation when you filed your immigration documents.
Ok so let d talk about how can I feel x this now? What anyone else would do?

Sounds like it's time to lawyer up in case they decide to revoke the benefits (i.e. green card) obtained via the misrepresentation and it goes to immigration court. While it was a long time ago, it sounds like your past violation is catching up with you.
I spoke to two top Immigration lawyers known for their work from long time. After they read the decision, they advised me not to pursue with that matter for now because on the decision they only denying to grant me for citizenship. And one of the lawyer even said guaranteed I’ll be able to renew my GC with no issues. By the way the IO at my 485 had all the dispositions of those allegations because I actually got arrested in 2010 for using that passport by mutual agent working with DMV/ DHS/ Citizenship.
I got GC by marrying to US citizen.

99 entered with fake passport in Florida
Stayed till 2003 then left to Canada using my real name
Stayed Canada till 2007. Came back in 2007 with real name got admitted at Seattle held in detention bonded out applied I-589 failed to mention the fake document entry lawyer prepared didn't even ask.
Got married in 2008 petition approved didn't mention again previous Florida entry lawyer filled the application didn't ask me about that entry. 2012 got Green Card.
2017 applied for N-400 told all the truth starting from the illegal fake document entry till now because this time I filled the N-400 form.
Got denied that I did not file for I-601 when it was available to me around Green Card application time. Unlawful presence more than a year and misrepresentation are the allegations.
Most lawyers told me to burry this matter keep living as a resident. Lay low all my life, and don't travel might be a flag on my GC/ file.
I have citizen wife two citizen kids financial debt of $300k been paying taxes since.
I feel like I'm contained like a virus.
Any advise from the experience person in such matter will be appreciated.
Thanks
