Make angularjs $digest run after returned Bluebird wrapping angularjs $http service

So I have some code in a service that looks like this:

getData(params) {
    // ... config, url
    return this.$http.get(url, config)
        .then(result => {...})
        .catch((e) => {...})
}

And I use it in a component like so:

ctrl.service.getData(params).then(result => {...}).catch((e) => {...})...;

The thing is, I want to be able the cancel this promise, something that can be achieved fairly easy using Bluebird. But if I wrap my $http call in a Promise.resolve($http...) then I'm missing out on the digest cycle triggered by the $http call and my UI doesn't get updated. Is there a better way to return Bluebird promise from the service ?

EDIT: I wrapped my call like so.

getData(params) {
    // ... config, url
   return Promise.resolve( this.$http.get(url, config) )
       .then(result => {...})
       .catch((e) => {...})
}

This is returning me the needed bluebird promise and I am able to cancel it, but this fires up the angularjs $digest before I'm finished consuming the promise inside the controller, so the UI does not get updated. (I do not want to call a $scope.$apply)
