<p>Dear all,</p>

<p>I know this is a old question and I also read the previous
answer about this.</p>

<p>I test with different ecutwfc , <span> </span>ecutrho (until 30 times of ecutwfc) , and
K-grid. However, the problem still exists. <span> </span>Since the calculation expense is always in
concern, so I want to use symmetry during the calculation.</p>

<p>I attach the output and input file here for reference.</p>
