Once the message was sent

Hello.


Are the following sentences grammatically correct?


"Once the message was sent, she tried to relax, even for a moment, although the feeling of anger continued as she considered it a very unfair situation. Lying on her bed, her phone told her she had a new message."


Thanks.

Yes. The last one sounds like the phone was lying on her bed. If the meaning is instead that she was lying on her bed, say eg Her phone told her, lying on her bed, she had a new message.
