My dad smashed our remote [Dont ask...] to our SVA TV & we bought a new remote but it says to manually turn on the TV 1st, but how do we turn it on if we dont have a remote in the first place?

There are universal remotes that seem to be able to operate almost anything, available at stores, but I don't know how much you would save over the $40 original... The Universal remote could be used with a new TV when you replace this one, though.
You did not remark which make and model TV you are referring to, but most universal remotes can control most multiple devices: TV, VCR, DVD, Stereo, Satellite Box, etc. I would suggest getting one of these as buying an original remote would most likely be a lot more expensive. These remotes include instructions and program codes to enter for programming all your devices.
I got this same tv from a guy in my area he would press the poewer botton on the tv and the standby light comes on and then turns off, so he gave me the tv for free i took the back panel off, and everytime i press the power botton the green light came on where the screen board is and went back off after i let the botton go i took the power board out took it to a repair shop to see if there was anything a wrong with it everything was good so i replaced the two fuses on the board and the one on the screen board, i had a feeling about the power switch so i jumped the wires on the switch purple to purple and green to green, I put it back together pluged it in the standby light came and stays on now, so i went out and got a universal remote for the sva at walmart for $15 programed it and pressto the tv works perfect so three fuses $3.60 two small pieces of wire and ele tape $0 my time 35 mins = one working plasma for $3.60 so when you have this problem like everyone else check the power botton switch, there cheap and check the fuses theres only three and if that dont work idk what to tell ya. and you do need a remote or tv wont work.
The only remote that works is the one 4 all.
Call ONE 4 ALL for the right model number. They then can program the remote on the phone to operate the SVA tv. It worked for me until the set died this week. Guess why I am looking on this site.
Its probably your power supply failing. Mine did the same thing after about a year and a half. Of course its out of warranty and the shops around town cant get the part, and theres virtually no way to get a hold of SVA. But good luck with it.
