Buy a Amazon Fire TV Stick for 4k or A95X (2gb ram, 16gb internal) from gearbest for 37$ (~2.5k)
You would need working HDMI port. There is no other way to "convert" your TV to smart one otherwise.

Try to repair HDMI port and use Chromecast or Firestick.

There was another thread on this forum which talked about Android on Pi. You can Google the same as well. But, I don't know it will be of any use without HDMI port.

The one with EU plug actually:

This was going for 37$ last week and I'm pretty sure would go for the same again sometime.

I don't think AV output would support 1080p resolution. Seriously, get that HDMI port fixed. Don't buy a pi for the sole purpose of trying to convert your tv to "smart" one.
