Help Touchscreen activates during phone call

Hey guys,

I've only seen this brought up once on this forum before and it looks like it wasn't resolved, so I wondered if anyone may have had similar issues or if it had been something only occurring in my own personal experiences.

I have had two HTC Desire's since starting the contract, one being replaced from a damage incident, but both have seemed to have had the same problem and now I'm wondering if it's a manufacturer flaw.

When speaking on the phone during a call the phone's touchscreen will still activate, thus leading to hangups during the call from accidentally knocking "end call" or even muting so that the person on the other end thinks I'm gone. This has been happening more and more often in the past few months, and it's getting to the point where if I'm speaking to someone important it will literally hang up and in some situations, I cannot always call back due to not having the number.

It's happened on both phones, and I don't want to replace my phone AGAIN if I'm gonna get this problem reoccuring (it already cost me
 
You don't have a screen protector covering the sensor or a case that impedes it do you?

or use a task killer?
 
Never done it myself. I haven't got a HTC rom so I can't test the functionality of it.
