Had Olbricht initiated Valkyrie immediatelly after the flash...
...instead of waiting 3 hrs, I still don't think the result would have beem much different. Even if they had arrested all the SS, and closed down all fhe districts on that map, the moment live Hitler emerged and contacted anyone in the Wehrmacht, you'd have the same thing as seen in the movie. Someone like Major Remer would have overturned the putschist arrest warrants, released the captive SS and Party figures, and re-established the Nazi order. Hitler survived and that was the end of it. The Wermacht oath was still in effect.
