Child View/Route that Resolves from Different Service than Parent

Hi,

I’m having an issue loading a child view/route while resolving a GET from a different service from the parent view/route.

Within the parent view, each ion-item links to /#/tab/categories/{{ category.listing_category_id }}
When clicked the URL populates (for a flash) with the correct category ID, the child’s service successfully receives the category ID, runs the subsequent GET request & returns the data as a promise…that all works as intended. The issue is that the child view/route never loads. All help/guidance is very much appreciated.

Parent

angular.module('rainbowPages.tab.categories', [])

.config(function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) {
	// UI Router
	$stateProvider.state('tab.categories', {
		url: '/categories',
		views: {
			'tab-categories': {
				templateUrl: 'views/tab-categories/tab-categories.html',
				controller: 'CategoriesCtrl'
			}
		}
    });

	// otherwise
    $urlRouterProvider.otherwise('/tab/categories');
})

.factory('CategoriesService', function($resource) {
	var remoteCategoriesURL = 'http://104.167.104.163:7000/api/v1/categories',

		categoriesService   = $resource(remoteCategoriesURL, {}, {
			getAll: {
				method: 'GET',
				isArray: true
			}
		});

  return categoriesService;
})

.controller('CategoriesCtrl', function($scope, CategoriesService) {
	$scope.categories = CategoriesService.getAll();
});

Child

angular.module('rainbowPages.tab.categories.detail', [])

.config(function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) {
	// UI Router
	$stateProvider.state('tab.category-detail', {
		url: '/categories/:listing_category_id',
		
		views: {
			'tab-categories': {
				templateUrl: 'views/category-detail/category-detail.html',
				controller: 'categoryDetailCtrl'
			}
		},

		resolve: {
			listings: function($stateParams, CategoryDetailService) {
	  			// bind data to listing
	  			return CategoryDetailService($stateParams.listing_category_id);
			}
		}
	});
})


.factory('CategoryDetailService', function($resource) {
	var remoteCategoryURL     = 'http://104.167.104.163:7000/api/v1/category/:categoryID',

		categoryDetailService = $resource(remoteCategoryURL, {categoryID:'@listing_category_id'}, {
			get: {
				method: 'GET',
				isArray: true
			}
		}),

		getListingsInCategory = function getListingsInCategory(categoryID) {
			listingsInCategory = categoryDetailService.get({categoryID:categoryID}, function(promise) {
				if(promise.$resolved = true) {
					console.log(promise); // how I know the promise has the correct data
					return promise;
				}
			});
		};

	return getListingsInCategory;
})


.controller('categoryDetailCtrl', function($scope, listings){
	console.log('listings are : ' + listings);
	$scope.listings = listings;
});
