Samsung Galaxy S3 4G charger issues



Hello!
For long now I've been using my sister's usb charger to charge my s3 because it is a 2.1A one. The OEM charger is just sooo slow and weird, sometimes it chargers 40% in a hour, sometimes 5%. But today I went to buy my own charger, so I bought a Sandstøm one (same brand as my sis') that has a 2.4A and 2.1A port. But when I got to using it, I found out that when I'm playing games and charging the battery is still draining and not charging, faster using the 2.4A port and slower using the 1A port. But ehen I use my sister's charger it charges fine. I am using the OEM charger cables, so thats not the issue I think. I just want to know, why? Is this something to do with the phone limiting the charging current more on my charger, and is there any way I could workaround this? I know the phone should only draw a little over 1A at max, but why does my sister's charger charge faster?
