Can you force a reboot with Vol+ & Vol- & Power? Then Vol- & Home & Power should open download mode. From here you should be able to use Smart Switch for a firmware update.

Look for a pit file and flash it with Odin. Tab "PIT", load the PIT file; tab "Options": [x] Re-partition; [x] F. Reset Time.
Reboot into download mode and restart Odin to flash the most recent firmware again (BL, AP, CP & CSC).
If this does not help you may need to replace the main board.

I've attached the PIT file pulled from my SM-J500F. In case if you haven't got hold of one, you may insert the below file(after extracting) in PIT option on Odin. Hopes this will work!

Install an older version of smart switch, they disabled the reinstall option
It worked for me when my phone didnt even show that screen.
You can also try reinstalling the missing parts throw odin, like the previous coment said

I get this after trying to flash the pit :(
So all the same, if i try another pit the same proble. I instaled old version of smart switch and i wrote the model and the imei, and says try again.
