Hmm, doesn't it restore the phone to the current ROM that is loaded onto the phone? If that is the factory, that it will restore back to factory. If you have flashed a new ROM, it will start you with a fresh version of that new ROM, not factory...

Yes, it removes your contacts and any data you've saved on the device, but will leave the SD card alone. You don't have to restore your phone number, that is tied to the phone with your carrier.
