You can use resolve in the .config $routeProvider. If a promise is returned (as it is here), the route won't load until it is resolved or rejected. Also, the return value will be available to injected into the controller (in this case Somert).

angular.module('somertApp')
  .config(function($routeProvider) {
    $routeProvider
      .when('/home/:userName', {
        /**/
        resolve: {
          Somert: function($q, $location, Somert) {
            var deferred = $q.defer();
            Somert.get(function(somertVal) {
              if (somertVal) {
                deferred.resolve(somertVal);
              } else {
                deferred.resolve();
                $location.path('/error/'); //or somehow handle not getting
              }
            });
            return deferred.promise;
          },
        },
      });
  });
