I suggest that you edit case.in1 and allow for a "E-search" like:   
  0   -7.436     0.002 CONT 1
  1   -0.689     0.000 CONT 1
  1   -4.066     0.002 CONT 1
and then use    runsp_lapw    (without -in1new).

If this does not help either, you may have to restart with new densities
generated by   x dstart; x dstart -up; x dstart -dn
