[SalesForce] ui:input select on change event in lightning 3

I have gone through Many Links Sample- Link but couldn't get the answer. I Have a Sobject to be filled beforei hit the apex controller.
Structure in component is:

<aura:attribute name="newFeedbackObj" type="sObject" default="{
    'sobjectType': 'Feedback__c','Chose_Category__c':'' }"/>

<aura:attribute name="categoryList" type="String[]"/>

And in doInit method i am fetching all picklist from the object using schema.

<ui:inputSelect label="Categories" class="slds-input" aura:id="feedback_Category"
                                labelClass="slds-form-element__label" change="{!c.onChangePickVal}">
                <aura:iteration items="{!v.categoryList}" var="s"> 
                    <ui:inputSelectOption text="{!s}" /> 
                </aura:iteration>            
            </ui:inputSelect>

When compenent loads, all the picklists values comes correctly. Upon changing the value, i am calling a jsController as below.

    onChangePickVal : function(cmp){
            var selectCmp = cmp.find("feedback_Category");   
            console.log('selectCmp >>'+selectCmp);
    component.set("v.newFeedbackObj.Chose_Category__c", selectCmp.get("v.value"));
console.log('Selected Value>>'+selectCmp.get("v.value"));
        }

But at the end, the chosen pick list value is not being sent. can someone plesae help me. I want to pass the selected value to sObject.

I even get the correct chosen value in by console.log "Selected Value>>". I just don't know how can i pass it to sObject.

@ItaiShmida Thanks for yur input but somehow it didnt worked. So as a last option i passed the Selected category as One of the Parameter to my Apex controller and then just before created it I changed the value of the object.

var action = component.get("c.createFeedback1");
action.setParams({"parmToBePassed":feedbackFrm , "selectedCat":selectedCat});

And in my apex Controller :

public static String createFeedback1(Feedback__c parmToBePassed, string selectedCat){
    parmToBePassed.Chose_Category__c = selectedCat;
    upsert parmToBePassed;
}

[SalesForce] Lightning Change Event

Here is a complete example that does what I think you were attempting to do:

<aura:component implements="force:appHostable">
    <aura:attribute name="expenseName" type="String" default="My Expense"/>
    <aura:handler name="change" value="{!v.expenseName}" action="{!c.expenseNameChanged}"/>     

    <ui:inputText label="Expense Name" value="{!v.expenseName}"/>
</aura:component>

in the component's client controller:

({
    expenseNameChanged : function(component, event, helper) {
        var newValue = event.getParam("value");
        var oldValue = event.getParam("oldValue");
        alert("Expense name changed from '" + oldValue + "' to '" + newValue + "'");
    }
})

[SalesForce] Treat click event on as a click on

Add an onclick to the div and use something similar to (Pardon my naming):

Component

<aura:component description="myProblemComponent" implements="flexipage:availableForAllPageTypes">

    <div style="display:inline-block;margin-right:10px" onclick="{!c.openPicker}">
        <lightning:icon iconName="utility:event"/>
    </div>
    <div style="display:inline-block">
        <ui:inputDate aura:id="dateInput" class="slds-input" displayDatePicker="false" />
    </div>

</aura:component>

Controller

({

    openPicker: function(component,event,handler){
        var y = component.find("dateInput");
        var t = y.getEvent("openPicker");
        t.fire();
    }
})

shorten code as you see fit

the ui:inputDate registers an event handler for openPicker that you can fire

Fire a component event to communicate data to another component. A component event can be handled by the component that fired the event or by a component in the containment hierarchy that receives the event.

https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.lightning.meta/lightning/events_component_fire.htm

Although the default component has a cal icon to the right in the input so not sure why it is not showing up in your example
