How to disable proximity sensor for phone calls

During a phone call any attempt to scroll down from the top of the screen turns the screen off.
This is caused by the proximity sensor, and according to Official Samsung representatives, cannot be disabled.
I have rooted my device.
Now, how can I disable this?
Thanks!

Disable proximity sensor entirely

Hello guys,
I cracked the screen of my Nexus 4 and ordered a replacement screen + digitizer from ebay. After waiting 2 months and putting the phone together, I realised the proximity sensor isn't working. I followed some guides and realised I've lost the little bit of rubber that goes in between. Is there something else I can use, or even better, can I disable the proximity sensor entirely as it's not important to me at all?
Thanks
Yes. There is Xposed Framework plugin which allows you to disable it. I use it and it works good. The name of the app is Disable Proximity Sensor.

Disable Proximity Sensor (for Skype)?
