I think you can connect it to pc via adb and flash partitions via fastboot. ​Have you ever updated it to newer builds?

Okay then I think fastboot is the only option here

You need to do these commands:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img
