Even a coil requires a circuit to detect and amplify its signal, which requires no more current than a Hall effect circuit.
Nokia may not fix the hardware, but the firmware/software can be fixed to avoid turning on the device when the sensor thinks that the keyboard tray opens.
That is, for all intents and purposes, a fix.
The other possibility is hacking your device by opening it up and cutting a wire or trace, thus stopping the sensor from working.
