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

#52553 even with 3.0V my esp work well.
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?

#52560 Hi the pullups I have are GPIO15 pulldown with 10K, CH_PD pulled up with 10k, GPIO0 pulled up with 10k. If I plug my serial programmer in to debug it crashes the programmer and I have to restart the computer to be able to read serial again. Without the programmer (which I tried to see if this was the issue) the blue LED lights up but no data is received in my broker, no will message or data. The same voltage is coming out of the programmer as the AMS1117 so I am totally lost on this.
