Something is wrong in your inputpp file. Please check it carefully. In PDOS 
calculations tetrahedra is not implemented/allowed.


2>    When I use the kvecs_FS.x to generate the k-points for the nscf 
calculation, the output return :

I can not understand this, because kvecs_FS is not related  with any program, in 
particular,  to tetrahedra, who complains.

These k-vectors are distributed over the full BZ, not  only in the first BZ.

For example, to calculate electron-phonon coupling coefficient, for isolated 
systems, etc., etc., 


Bests,
