Hi there. Frustrating problem. in an ngForm, if in my controller I set one of the form's controls to $dirty (via control.$setDirty()), then in the controller set the same control to $pristine, the form remains $dirty.

1. on state load, form is $pristine
2. via another event, call controller function that does control.$setDirty() - form is now $dirty
3. via another event, call controller function that does control.$setPristine() - form is still $dirty

I'm pretty sure this shouldn't happen, and is getting kludgy to fix. I'm using Angular 1.4.8.
