[Pw_forum] ph.x can only address LDA potentials?

Dear Pw user:


     I am trying to calculate Raman spectrum of some stuff. But it seems that the ph.x complains whenever I use potentials other than LDA. It gives error messages like:
   
     The phonon code with ### and raman, elop or elph is not yet available.
 
     So, is the lda-potentail our only choice?   But the calculated Raman mode is very bad comparative to the experimental results. For instance, SiH4, it gives:

#  mode   [cm-1]     [THz]      IR           Raman     depol

but the experimental value is 2187 cm-1
