As @sma said in his comment, we would need to know what router are you using.
ui-router
In case you were using ui-router and if you defined your params in your state, you could just use $stateParams in order to get it in your controller:
app.controller('MyController', ['$stateParams', function ($stateParams) {
var id = $stateParams.myParamName; // the param defined in the state
}]);
ngRoute
In case you were using ngRoute, you should use $routeParams in the same way:
app.controller('MyController', ['$routeParams',
function($routeParams) {
var id = $routeParams.myParamName; // the param defined in your route
}]);
EDIT
I'm going to assume you are using ngRoute, so first of all, check your route definition, it should be in your config phase, and it should look like this:
.config(['$routeProvider',
function($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider.
when('/phones', {
templateUrl: 'partials/phone-list.html',
controller: 'PhoneListCtrl'
}).
when('/phones/:phoneId', {
templateUrl: 'partials/phone-detail.html',
controller: 'PhoneDetailCtrl'
}).
otherwise({
redirectTo: '/phones'
});
}]);
And then, in your controller, you should be able to get your param (called phoneId in this example) as in the above ngRoute controller example (with $routeProvider).
Probably you should first take a look to the documentation, particulary to this part.
