The Philips DVP3100V won't turn on because it is stuck in SAFE mode and the available remotes do not have a LOCK button to disable this mode. The device does not respond to commands, and the remotes from similar models are not compatible.

The Philips DVP3100V/02 DVD player may not be working because the DVD tray is blocked. This issue is not caused by a child lock. A possible solution is to remove the top cover and, after pressing the "DVD eject" button, manually lift the small circular disc clamp to unblock the tray.

You cannot disable the child lock on a Philips DVP 3100V without a remote. The front panel buttons are locked when child lock is enabled, and only the remote control can turn it off.
