In case you are trying to force reload when a user clicks a link, set link's target attribute. It will trigger reload regardless of reloadOnSearch=false

<a href="/same_page?different_param=123" target="_self">Reload</a>

I have not tried it, but something that you can try is.

In the $routeUpdate event handler call the $route.reload() method if you know the condition that should cause refresh of route.

This is also work

app.controller('appCtrl',function($scope,$window){
           $scope.reload =function(){
               $window.location.reload(); 
           }
})

html

<div ng-click="reload()">reload</div>
