Im having the same problem with my standard 07 yaris too.
It seems that the parking cable works fine but the rear brakes are sticking and are still stuck.... how do i un-stick them to get the drum off?If i use a hammer where should I hit the rear drums to make them unstick?

Wouldn't do that with just a hammer. Use a rubber mallet. By your post, you are saying the car is not driveable at all because the rear brake linings are stuck to the drum?
