Answer 1

factory does not need to return a promise.I mean that depends on how you manage your factory and controllers and how you are going to resolve it.

your factory does not return a promise but resource, so it should be resolved in your controller. your update method in controller should be like this :

    $scope.UpdateEmp = function () {
    var empl = $scope.Employee;
    empFactory.empUpdate.update({ EmpID: $routeParams.EmpID, empval: empl }, function (successResponse) { // update method in my resource uses $resource
        $location.path('/EmpList'); //redirect to list
    },function (error) { 
     // do something on error callback
    });
