A whitepaper was recently released with some information on running app verifier on CE5.0 and WM5.0 based devices.
Take a look at the following and see if it helps.

I am getting the same "Unable to enable shim engine on device!" error when try to connect to the device, then appverifce.exe just hung, taking 99% of CPU cycle. I have to kill it through Task Manager.

Has anybody else got Application Verifier to work with PPC 2005 platform?

Thank you very much.

Using the advice contained in this article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnce50/html/appverifier_wince.asp

I am attempting to use the verifier (\Application Verifier for Mobile 5.0\Desktop\AppVerifCE.exe) with a Windows Mobile 5 Pocket PC device (hp iPAQ) connected via USB. I have selected the Pocket PC 2003 device, and am using the ActiveSync transport.

After I connect with AppVerifCE.exe, several files are downloaded to the device, and then AppVerifCE.exe on the desktop hangs, consuming lots of cpu. I never get to the "Add Application" dialog. (I know I have waited for 5 minutes before giving up and killing AppVerifCE.exe.)

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Frank

I Tuan i also faced same problem...

the reason for the above said problem is that the file " shinengine_dll " is not digitally signed by ur SDK so use the " Security Configuration Manager " through which u can give an digital signature for the device.

You can download the above said tool from microsoft website.

Please let me know if its not working

Regards,

Sunil

Hi Sunil
I tried this but with no avail. I get the same problem again. In fact I tried connecting to WM5.0 SP Emulator, which is cradled to AS.
My AppVerifier version is for 5.0 only, but still the problem persists.
Please help me out.

Hi all,

RESOLUTION
============
The solution contains these steps:

1. Copy the Armv4i directory located at "C:\Program Files\Application Verifier for Mobile 5.0\" to the emulator

2. Start the AppVerif.exe on the device

3. After the application is running on the emulator, start the AppVerifCE.exe located at C:\Program Files\Application Verifier for Mobile 5.0\Desktop. It is also possible to use the AppVerifCE.exe supplied with the Windows CE Test Kit from the Desktop directory.

Best regards,
