For example: if I download the official ics from the dev forum >copy it to the external sd> run the recovery > wipe clean(as by the books) > install the official .zip would that be a true factory reset?
P.S. I just do NOT want to brick my device, better ask first

Another question/problem: I went to recovery and prepared to run the >>>System Nullify: Nullifies /cache /data /system. THIS DELETES INTERNAL SD!<<<
When I choose to use a zip from SD card it opens the devices integrated memory, BUT when I use a zip from Internal SD it opens the micro SD card. So does that mean it will erase everything from my INTERNAL SD = micro SD(external), dew to recovery internal sd is the external sd....very confusing!

So what happend, I ran the script than I applied the update.zip(from external SD, extracted successfully) from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1307046 FULL PACKAGE
and now I am stuck at ACER logo with bootloader still UNLOCKED!
What are my options?
P.S. I have tried the http://support.acer.com/acerpanam/ta...A100faq9.shtml FACTORY RESET but as soon as it started to "Erasing Userdata..." , reboots and I am again stuck at ACER UNLOCKED MODE logo...

My nullifier only does internal no matter what's mounted. Its hard coded to do /data which contains /data/media which is internal. It does not do sdc or external or any other partitions besides /cache /data /system. So basically no, it couldn't unless your recovery mounts external to one of those mount points, which none do unless its been changed.

Tldnr doesn't do external no matter what.
