This is a good question because there seems to be a big confusion among many Japanese-learners regarding this.
「どうしますか/どうするの/どうしよう。」
These phrases are used ONLY as a reaction to something that has just occured unexpectedly.
Examples:
Guy A: "Damn! I lost my wallet!"
Guy B: どうしよう/どうしようか/どうする？
Gal A: "Masaegu is asking me out. どうしよう・・・"
Gal B: "どうするの？"
「何をしますか。」
This is used to ask what someone is planning or scheduled to do.
