You can't do that, I'm afraid. Only touch events *inside* the app are recorded.

You could do record_begin then activate Shake Gesture in the hardware menu and then record_end (but I haven't tried)

You mean the iOS simulator? It's there in the menu bar of the simulator. You're not talking about Android, right?

I'm not sure what you mean, I'm sorry.

To perform this you can fire shake event using AppleScript. As a reference how to use it from Ruby you can use https://gist.github.com/Satoridigital/3742748

This works for me on both the simulator and a physical device (iOS 8.1, Xcode 6.1.1, Calabash 0.12.2):

uia('target.shake();')
