Unplug your wifi router for about 60seconds then plug it back in. See if that helps. If you have a modem do the same. Also in your wireless settings make sure wifi is set to never turn off.
Try that and see if it helps.

Did you reset your router? And what didn't help?

It is 100% phone related.all my other phones + my ps 3 are doing very good on wifi.so it's not the router.if you think is the phone router,i don't know how to reset that

I really don't know what the issue is but this is just something to try. To reset your modem and router just uplug them for a couple of minutes and then plug them back in. Also have you checked your wireless settings to make sure wifi is set to never sleep?

I had problems like this after flashing some custom kernels with some custom ROMs. So try wiping dalvik and cache, and reflashing your kernel with "fastboot flash boot boot.img "

as much as i want to ask if its your router lol it sounds like something gave in the kernel man. Have you tried reflashing your kernel or switching kernels? i had the same problem when i first started flashing stuff, so i reflashed everything from the radio to the kernel and then the ROM three times and that seemed to do the trick. just saying doesn't hurt to try reflashing a new kernel or even the same one. wipe cache/dalvik cache 3X, flash new kernel and it should work. if not, your WiFi part of the radio might have given out (known to happen)
HTC EVO 3D
ROM:Trib's SolidRom v1.7 (and up )
RECOVERY: EXT4 TOUCH RECOVERY
KERNEL: KeRnElChEf's Anthrax SHOOTER QC 3.0.4
HBOOT: Was 1.5...naowz 1.4!!!

If I've helped you in any way, please feel free to hit the "Thanks" button for meh and not just SAY it
