Finally I got ... the last hint from William Hermans indicated me something 
about the device name, which could be "rtcX", which made me execute: "ls 
-la /dev/rtc*":

root@beaglebone:~# ls -la /dev/rtc*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      4 May 21  2016 /dev/rtc -> rtc0
crw------- 1 root root 254, 0 May 21  2016 /dev/rtc0

1) Replace "rtc1" with "rtc0" in the commands and everything works! (the 
system date and time were already correct):

hwclock -w -f /dev/rtc0

2) To test if it worked and if the date and time were actually adjusted, I 
changed the system time, restarted the BBB and disconnected it from the 
internet to ensure the date and time would not be auto-tuned. After 
restarting it, I checked if the system time was still wrong and then read 
the RTC time (which must be correct!).

hwclock -r -f /dev/rtc0

It works!!! RTC date and time were correct.

I don't even know how to thank everyone for their help. It should be simple 
to solve this problem, but it takes a lot of time, especially for those who 
don't have experience like me.

Thank you very much!
