relationships

is it bad that I went through his phone?

It's not great — but the more useful question is what made you do it. Phone-checking is almost never random; it's the body acting on information the brain hasn't admitted yet. If you found something: trust the finding, not the method. If you found nothing: trust the urge, and figure out what your gut is reacting to.

Should I tell him I went through his phone?
Depends on what you found. If nothing — work on what made you reach for it. If something — lead with what you found, not how.
Why did I look if I trust him?
Often it's not him you stopped trusting — it's a pattern, a tone shift, a gut signal you couldn't name.
Is checking your partner's phone a sign the relationship is over?
Not always. It's a sign something is unspoken. The relationship is over when the unspoken thing can't be said.
