I remember that ph.x can deal with ultrasoft pseudo-potential (may not work with PAW pseudo-potential)~ According to my own experience, since NCPP alway requires high cut-off energy, it will cost more time for phonon calculation~ Or, this website: http://www.sas.upenn.edu/rappegroup/htdocs/Research/psp_gga.html, provides norm-conserving pseudo-potential parameters for certain elements (a little big harder pp, so the cut-off around 100Ry is required). You can use opium code to generate UPF format pp based on the parameters.
