Hi there & thanks for this!
I did have a bit of trouble using it, until I changed the last defaults line to
defaults write #{accessibilityPlistPath} "AXInspectorEnabled" '1' (i.e. 1 instead of 0)

Hi gsaslis, thanks for the comment!
Similar workaround should be now integrated to calabash-ios version 0.9.169 so custom workaround should not be needed anymore. See https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/calabash-ios/aiMN5NEZM5I
