There was a call from my office in the afternoon yesterday but I couldn't answer that because I was asleep at that time.

1) If I had put my phone in the hall rather than my room l, my mother would have woken me up when they tried contacting me.

2) I could have put it in the hall so that when they contacted me my mother could have woken me up.

3) I didn't put my phone in the hall. If I had, my mother would have woken me up when they contacted me.

4) Today I put my phone in the hall so that when they tried contacting me my mother would wake me up but they didn't call me today.

Please check my sentences(especially the last one).
