I have done some reading around and found that supositly you can "disable" your softomod or something and switch back to your original xbox dash and play on xbox live? anyone know anything about this?

you will want to post in the Gamesave Exploits forum about this. thats where most softmod info can be found, and i'm fairly sure someone over there can help you. this is the XBMC forum, and your question has nothing to do with XBMC, so it's likely you will get information faster by posting there instead.

this is a gamesave exploit forum not XBMC forum so he has posted it in the right forum and also to the guy who originally posted if you use krayzies ndure 1.1 to softmod once you have softmodded then you want to on live you can either coldboot the game then go straight onto live or load the exploit up again and click on turn softmod off
