Xperia C6916 charging very inefficently

Hi all,
I recently got the Xperia Z1s and it's been a pretty nice phone. The battery lasts me two days with moderate usage. The only problem is that my phone takes forever to charge. So I check out the current flowing through my phone and that's where I find the problem. When using the stock charger and cable, I get less than half of their advertised current...600 ma or so (out of 1500). So I upgrade to an intelligent charger that can pump out 2.4 amps. So I'm expecting the phone to get the full 2 amps since that is the maximum it can hold but no! I get a pathetic increase of only 200 ma. So my phone takes more than 3 hours to charge. How do I increase the efficiency of my charger? I'm looking for current that's close to the 2000 ma the phone can supposedly handle.

Any help? People at xda forums haven't responded yet.
