How to avoid screen dimming during calls?

During phone calls, the screen dims when I move the phone right next to my ears, and lights up when I move the phone away from my head. I hate that because it to often interferes with my phone operations. Is there a way to disable the dimming?
 
Its the proximity sensor that detects this, and its there to prevent your face from pressing buttons while on the phone

Turn your phone speaker on and bring up the keypad. that should keep the screen lit during a call.
 
If the screen didn't turn off, your face wouldn't hit every single button thats on that screen. There's a reason the screen turns off. ;)
