ng-model does not update displayed select value on Chrome/Android

[jacekwasowski]

Chrome v35.0.1916.141
Android 4.2.2
Angular 1.2.18

When changing the value of select the model is properly updated, however select keeps displaying the old value until it loses focus.

<select name="x" ng-model="x">
<option>1</option>
<option>2</option>
</select>

Is this Android 4.2.2 specific?
Did it work in older versions of Angular?

Actually today it looks even deeper down the stack. Just changing orientation causes the select to display the right value. Same effect has blur. Most likely this is a Chrome rendering bug.

Please:

1. Provide a reproduction via plnkr.co or jsfiddle.
2. Check that the problem persists after updating Angular.

This saves us a lot of time. Thanks!

I have the same issue if I have together on the same page a select and a ng-grid (current version 2.0.11).
Angular version 1.2.21
Chrome mobile 36.0.1985.131
Android 4.2.2

I can submit the following information regarding this bug as we are having the same problem:

• It's not specific for Android version.
• It's not specific for Angular version, (we've tried multiple versions) in the 1.2.* span.
• It's not specific for Chrome version.

Opera also has the same issue, but not Firefox.

We found our issue. It was that Chrome doesn't change the display value until the object is blured. We solved it by forcing a blur on ng-change. Check if that might be the same issue that's causing your behaviour as well.

Just in case people don't understand what @theronin means, here is a sample snippet (I am using ng-classify, it's awesome)

class ForceBlur extends Directive
  # https://github.com/angular/angular.js/issues/7986
  constructor: () ->
    return {
      restrict: "A"
      require: 'ngModel'
      link: (scope, elem, attrs, ctrl) ->
        if ctrl and ctrl.$viewChangeListeners
          ctrl.$viewChangeListeners.push () ->
            $(elem).blur()
    }

same issue here, rotating the phone or clicking away seems to help updating select field but thats not an option, @jacekwasowski have you found a good workaround?
