OK, you removed your phone from any cloud account or Verizon cloud?  I don't see where Yahoo and the Verizon cloud co mingle. BUT, below I have a couple links that seem to point toward "sync and connect."  Depending on what model phone you have you might find other ways.

Well i foloowed the directions on all of those. Some of them are out of date and the Verizion website has changed, but i was able to cancel the Cloud service, but i cant find the Back Up Assistance to cancel that.

BUA was renamed to Verizon Cloud.  VC is all inclusive of the cloud-based services.

In your app manager did you disable Verizon Cloud and/or BUA and Verizon Sync?  There are apps that can block texts, but after Android 4.4 you are required to use THAT app to message from then on out.  After disabling those Verizon apps I have not had an issue.  Also, remove any Verizon account from the accounts list in the phones account settings.

Yes, I also had to settle for just disabling Cloud and Sync Service.
