download and flash stock rom for the exact build or higher your device is currently running on
since you can boot to homescreen, then check the build under settings > about phone
if you can't then boot to recovery mode, the build will be indicated on top of the recovery mode screen

unfortunately, some samsung devices dont allow downgrading bootloader
you could try searching for 4 file firmware for an older build, then flash only AP, CP and CSC ; ie skip BL and flash the rest, maybe that'll work for you
you can check build number from your backup using method 4 or 7 @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-16005.html
