Primefaces DataTable filtering and RowSelection not working

Question

I'am new to PrimeFaces. I'am using it to code the front end of a Saas Application. I' am using a primefaces datatable to display a list of customers. I need to sort and filter the values. Also I need to populate another widget when a row is selected on the datatable. Sorting works but filtering and selection don't work. Below are the code snippets of the bean and the faces page. I'am using PrimeFaces 2.2.1 and JSF 2.0.2.

}

The code is not populating the "selectedCustomer" object in the bean.
