I think no sirve is used in a lot of Latin American Spanish, but it means
"it doesn't work" in a very general manner. You can say, Tengo fiebre
tomé aspirina. Todavía tengo fiebre no me sirvió
You can also say. Traté el nuevo detergente y no sirvió para quitar manchas de grasa.
No sirve doesn't really mean out oforder and no funciona
does. No sirve is kind of vague. No funciona
Is more specific. They both can mean roto but they have other meanings that roto doesn't have.
