Why do you say this? Phonon calculations with pools parallelization is implemented and 
works properly! Why should it be meaningless?

The error message report you were refering to:

  from elphsum : error #         1

  pools and a2F not implemented

does not come from a phonon calculation (which can be done using pools), but from an 
electron-phonon coupling calculation, which has not yet been parallelized with pools 
(while distributed FFT parallelization should be already working).
