PHonon can be used whenever PWscf can be used, with the exceptions of DFT+U, nonlocal VdW and hybrid functionals. USPP and PAW are not implemented for higher-order response calculations.

You need to perform a 2nd-order response calculation to an electric
field with
USPP or PAW. It is not a trivial extension.
