Impossible to obtain color consistency

Kikelon
Hello everybody, im a spanish digikam user (at least for the moment) and i started using digikam with kde 3.5 version, and i never had problems with color management.
With KDE4 version i can't make color management give me the colors i expect. In the thumbnails and preview (double-clicking the thumbnail) i can see EXACTLY the colors i could see when i take the photo, as i saw in the camera lcd, but when i open them for editin, i don't know why, but colors appear very different as in the preview. With some combinations between color profiles i was able to aproximate the result but the preview always look far better, an i don't know wich combination of icc profiles and settings is the preview using that are SO different to the profiles i'm using in the editor.
I'm not very experienced with color management and other settings refered to icc profiles, and i know this is de 80% of the problem (if not the 100%).
Thank you.
