Your struct file allows only for FM structure. An AFM cell must be enlarged.
Anyway, using your struct file with U=0.3 Ry I get a gap of 0.5 eV.
However, when relaxing the O position, the gap more or less vanishes.
Convergence in the insulating state is ok (MMT=3.0), in the metallic
cases it is a bit sloppy.
Keep going, it is not unusual that you need 80 or more cycles for a
difficult magnetic structure.
But finally, you should consider the AFM structure.

Dear Sir,
I am sending a PRB paper in which magnetic orderings of LiNiO2
has been given. The link of the paper is DOI:
10.1103/PhysRevB.78.144412. It is A-type antiferromagnet.
Also, at cycle no.68, it first show the appearance of 0.005 for CC in LiNiO2

Smaller mixing factor is GIGO.
LiNiO2 is a well studied material. Did you research the magnetic
ordering found by others?

With Ni we are getting a metal (actually 0.4 eV band gap should
be achieved) while using Mn we are getting a semiconductor. I
have used smaller mixing parameter ~ 0.08 and also TEMP with
0.0018 for the Ni based case. After 54 iterations it is not
conserved yet

Dear Wien2k users,
With replacing Ni by Mn I can
achieve convergence by using an unoptimized struct file &
considering only GGA+U. Does it mean that Ni in LiNiO2 has
some issues with convergence?
i'm looking forward to listening from you.

Dear Wien2k users & Prof. Marks,
Following your advice, I have set up the magnetic
order by creating FM ordering in the intralplane Ni
atoms while AFM ordering between interplane Ni
atoms. I have done the followings;
1. 2x1x1 of R3m (166) LiNiO2 cell
2. It produces 12 atom cell. After X sgroup code
instructed to choose settings P3m1 (156) & I have
accepted it.
3. I have verified by simulating the XRD of R3m cell
& P3m1 cell, that both are giving same XRD using Vesta
4. I have used runsp_lapw -orb -nlvdw -ec 0.0001
-cc 0.0001 to include both GGA+U & nlvdw
5 . For the last 10 iterations the DIS are
--- DIS -----------
:DIS : CHARGE DISTANCE ( 0.3638450 for atom 4
spin 1) 0.2170913
:DIS : CHARGE DISTANCE ( 0.3803815 for atom 4
spin 1) 0.2210045
