App to fix "ghost touches" on broken screen

Inq

Lurker
An app that requests sets of coordinates (given as a touch) from the user and then blocks those coordinates from registering future touches.

As I visualized it:
A simple (+) button with a list of blocked coordinates over it. Pressing the (+) means the app waits for a touch. When a touch is registered, it asks if only those exact coordinates or coordinates within a (say max 10 pixels) radius should be blocked. Then it blocks touches on that part of the touchscreen.

Should then run in background.

The reason: My phone works great. Except for ghost touches on two coordinates. If I could just prevent touches on those two places it would be usable! As stands, it is essentially unusable half the time when it gets a fit. Physically fixing the phone is not an option. :(
