Angularjs cannot get data from service - angularjs

Question

I'm trying to pass data from one controller to another using a service, however no matter what I'm trying it always returns 'undefined' on the second controller. Here is my service :
app.service('myService', ['$rootScope', '$http', function ($rootScope, $http) {
var savedData = {}
this.setData = function (data) {
savedData = data;
console.log('Data saved !', savedData);
}
this.getData = function get() {
console.log('Data used !', savedData);
return this.savedData;
}
}]);
Here is controller1 :
.controller('HomeCtrl', ['$scope','$location','$firebaseSimpleLogin','myService','$cookies','$window', function($scope,$location, $firebaseSimpleLogin, myService, $cookies, $window) {
loginObj.$login('password', {
email: username,
password: password
})
.then(function(user) {
// Success callback
console.log('Authentication successful');
myService.setData(user);
console.log('myservice:', myService.getData()); // works fine
}]);
And then controller2:
// Dashboard controller
.controller('DashboardCtrl', ['$scope','$firebaseSimpleLogin','myService',function($scope,$firebaseSimpleLogin, $location, myService) {
console.log('myservice:', myService.getData()); //returns undefined
}]);
That is simple code, unfortunately I've been struggling for a few hours now, any suggestion ? Thanks.

Created a fiddle here:

To isolate the problem, can you remove the dependencies from the definition for myService and see if that makes it work? Look at the console after you load the fiddle.
var app = angular.module('app', [])
.service('myService', function(){
this.getData = function(){
return "got Data";
}
})

I assume the issue is that you are returning this.savedData in the service. Try returning savedData.
this behaves different in Javascript than in other languages.
