1. A method for locking an input device of an electronic device, the method comprising:
- detecting a moving action of a housing of the electronic device from an open position to a closed position;
detecting at least a first condition of the electronic device after detection of the moving action from the open position to the closed position; and
locking the input device upon detection of the first condition within a first time interval based on the electronic device being moved to the closed position.

8. A method for locking an input device of an electronic device comprising:
-
receiving a first input representative of a housing of the electronic device moving from an open position to a closed position; monitoring the input device for activity when the electronic device is in the closed position; and initiating a sleep state after not receiving a second input via the input device within a first time interval from receiving the first input. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
