Hello All,
I would really appreciate your advice with a problem on a S3 Mini, Recently purchased one for my partner all seemed fine then when I was talking to her on her new phone I suddenly could not hear her but she could here me, I thought as it was new to her it was her not the phone but this kept happening she said its when it touches her face it goes to mute/hold or that's what we think it is.
Eventually got a replacement thinking phone was faulty but now it's happening again so I assume we are missing something and would really appreciate your input, sorry to say I am not to well up on mobile phones so your expertise would really help.
Many thanks

Welcome to the forums!

Is the screen still turned on when she puts the phone next to her face? If so, at some point during the conversation her face is probably touching the screen and hitting the 'mute' control. There's a way to keep that from happening - in the Dialer app, press the Menu button, select 'Call settings', then select the 'Turn off screen during calls' checkbox.

Thank you so much for your reply, I am not sure if the phone screen is on as you suggest as my partner is away till the weekend but on her return will check that and try your suggestion.
I appreciate you taking the time to try and help thank you once again.
