is it gramatically correct?

"I did my homework when I had watched tv." ??

I came across to this sentence in a grammar test and I'm confused?

I'm not quite sure what you meant to say, but this sentence is not correct anyway. "I was doing my homework while (I was) watching tv" may be the correct sentence if you intended to say that those two actions were happening simultaneously.

Two sequential actions have taken place: first I watched tv; then I did my homework.

The sentence is grammatically correct.

After I had watched television, I did my homework.
