All are correct.
To make sense of the third one, context would be needed. For example, imagine this conversation:
A: I saw you driving a car. Whose car were you driving?
B: Charlie. I was driving his.

"I was talking to her" is correct, and implies that you are talking to a female. "I was talking to him" is correct, and implies that you are talking to a male. "His" and "her" are object pronouns.
"His" is a possessive pronoun. It indicates ownership.
John has a book.
He has a book.
Whose book is it?
It is his book.
"His" is masculine. The feminine form is "her."
Mary has a book.
She has a book.
Whose book it it?
It is her book.
You cannot say "I was talking to his" because "his" functions like an adjective, not like a noun.

All are correct with an exception of the last one. Which isn't really incorrect but rather incomplete.

I was talking to his wife/ daughter/ sister/ friend/ boss etc.

'Her' if you were talking to a girl or woman. 'Him' if you were talking to a boy or man.
