"Gushi-am kharāb shode ast" attaches the possessive -am directly to گوشی, and خراب شده است is a compound built from the past participle of شدن ('to become') plus است — the standard way to say something 'is broken' in Persian, framing the breakage as a state the phone has entered rather than an action done to it.
Where English speakers slip
English speakers often shorten the final ی to a short 'i' sound, but it should be a fully long 'ee'; also worth knowing گوشی literally means 'little ear/earpiece' historically (from گوش, 'ear'), so don't confuse the spelling with an unrelated word.
