As I said before:
The first question is: why is LDA+mBJ and PBE#mBJ not identical ??
What is :DIS of all your calculations ?
My guess is that they are not converged (just 40 default iterations,
just default convergence ?)
We do not know enough about your compound (except that it contains Bi),
but this does not happen in 99.9 % of all cases.
The behavior with SO is a second step, but unless the first one is
solved, I would not even discuss the SO behavior.
Also your comment about EMAX=6 (which is a very small increase for a
convergence test) indicates to me, that the previous calculations have
not been converged.

Dear Dr. Blaha,
1. Case: I get 4.85 eV for LDA and then MBJ without SO (4.77 eV with SO)
2. Case: I get 4.74 eV for PBE and then MBJ without SO (4.79 eV with SO)
In the 1. case band gap decreases with SO, but in the 2. case band gap
increases.
I use Emax=5 eV for both calculations.
As far as I know, for SO calculation Emax should be chosen carefully. I
did another calculation with Emax = 6eV.
This time, in both cases, the band gap increases with SO.
In literature, band gap decrease is expected with SO, but I get band gap
increase in my calculations.
My question is if there is something else should I check. Or how one
can explain the band gap increase?
Best regards.

Do you get identical gaps for:
LDA and then MBJ (no SO)
PBE and then MBJ (no SO) ???
If you did everything right, there is no reason why adding SO at the
end should give a different result.
Probably some other mistake ... ?

Dear Dr Blaha,
I think I did not write clear enough.
The calculation was done by following:
1. I did regular scf calculation with LDA
2. I added mBJ on it.
3. Then I added SOC.
I repeated the same calculation with PBE.
Thank you

No.
These 2 calculations should be exactly the same.
What matters is only: XC_MBJ
Everything in parenthesis is only a comment to give you a few
common options.

I'm not quite sure I understand what you did.
You are always using mBJ (for VX), but how do you mix
in LDA or PBE ?
By default we use LDA for VC, (and anything for EX and
EC, since this is
not important).
Usually, the choice of VC has only a small effect (as
compared to VX).
Please show the 2 lines in case.in0
