Cursor setup in plain linux console

Does anyone have any settings for the cursor in the plain linux
console (with/without screen)?

I ask because I've set a custom cursor in the console using a control
code: printf '\e[?3c', but vim always resets it back to the standard
thin underscore, which is very difficult to see.

I can set the cursor by setting term to 'ansi' and issuing a similar
code to change the cursor to a block when vim starts, but I've not
managed yet to set any cursors for the following editing modes:

&t_ti
&t_te
&t_SI
&t_SR
&t_EI
