It is regrettable you are having so many problems, but your attempts to cure the issues need to be more controlled and less "shotgun." That is, set your IDE correctly.
Find a nice, stable 5V - 6V power source to feed your ESP8266... your 12V adapter is at the upper end of the input voltage, a lower voltage power adapter wastes less energy and allows the -1117 to work cooler. In my lab, I use 5V to power my ESP8266 units that have on-board 3.3V regulators.
I know you are frustrated, but problem resolution must be done in a step-by-step fashion - methodically.

Most issues are solved now but still with a 5v running through AMS1117 it will not power the system, An ESP12f and DHT. there is 3.22v coming out of the AMS1117
I think there has to be some other cause for your problems.
Did you try with a simple sketch that only flashes the led?
Did you put all pull-ups/downs for good measure?
