For keeping track of search information, I've had luck pulling out search 
or filter parameters of the $route, and putting them in with $location

           .when('/quoteOne', {
            controller: 'quoteOneCtrl',
            templateUrl: 'quoteOne.html',
            resolve: {
                'search_payload': ['search_services', '$route', 
function(search_services, $route){
                    var params = $route.current.params;
                    var q = params.q || "";
                    // params: (query, number_per_page, page_number, 
order_by, sort_reverse, params) 
                    return search_services.search_buildings(q, 10, 1, "", 
false, params);
                }],


and to add them:
$location.path('/quoteOne').search('q=' + $scope.search_input);
