Hi, welcome to the Forum, Happy new Year.

I invite you to register in this community, it's easy a great place to share about VR/AR and a lot more of tech.

Answering your question, yes, you can add some 360 video files to your Samsung smartphone and watch it while using the Gear VR, you will need to name it is certain way and also store it in a particular folder.

It says put them in the MOVIES folder, but can they be in an SD folder?

From my experience with the Oculus Rift, no, it should be in the exact folder they stated (Movies).

But can that MOVIES folder be on an SD card?

So far no, only in the internal memory in the Movies folder :/

But some people said (never tried) if you store the videos on:

*SD Card* /Oculus/Movies/

It might work.
