  1. I believe this approach works for edits made on both front-end and back-end. And it provides the $user_id:

    function peter_xprofile_data_after_save( $data ) {

    if ( $data->field_id == 1542 ) {

        update_user_meta( $data->user_id, 'field_1542', 'changed');

    }
}
add_action( 'xprofile_data_after_save', 'peter_xprofile_data_after_save' );

  2. The above works fine in case of an edit, but not working when you “clean / remove” the text from the field. You should use something like this:

    function peter_xprofile_data_after_save( $data ) {

    $field_content = bp_get_member_profile_data('field=field_name'); // enter your field name here

    if($field_content == '') {
        update_user_meta( $data->user_id, 'field_1542', '' );
    }

    if ( $data->field_id == 1542 ) {
        update_user_meta( $data->user_id, 'field_1542', $data->value);
    }
}
add_action( 'xprofile_data_after_save', 'peter_xprofile_data_after_save' );
