Problem reading Ds1307 i2c RTC

Hi, i'm working with a TM4C1294XL board and a DS1307 board from grove. I found scratch of code in a website and i adapted it for my MCU. The program compiles wothout errors or warnings, the problem is the data read from RTC. When the program prints data on the UART, every print is different from the setup value, and non increase, are "random" numbers. I can't found where the problem is. i post the code and a screen from Oscilloscope when the function SetTimeDate(30,32,8,4,5,11,14); is called. Thanks in advance for your support.
